Farrah Fawcett - Artist
In September 1976, following years of making commercials and playing small parts on TV and in movies, Farrah had a breakthrough role in the TV detective drama Charlie’s Angels. With her co-stars Jaclyn Smith and Kate Jackson, Charlie’s Angels ranked in the top ten for two years, according to the Nielsen ratings. After Farrah left the series, its ratings slowly declined, but not before she had earned a Golden Globe nomination. Farrah soon sought out more challenging roles, tallying up three more nominations for Golden Globes and two for Emmy Awards. She gained respect and positive reviews for her performances on television, stage, and in nearly a dozen Hollywood films. While ample information can be found about Farrah’s beauty and personal life, few people are aware of her life as an artist. But people who knew her well will point out that she was passionate about art.
