Kate Jackson
We all have Kate Jackson to thank for saving the Charlie’s Angels show from being called Alley Cats, but it seems like she doesn’t get enough credit for it. Kate is best known for being a part of the famous trio as Sabrina Duncan. She spent many years as an actress, but she only realized her love for filmmaking during the making of Scarecrow & Mrs. King. As a director and producer, she was behind The Cold Heart of a Killer, Child’s Cry, Topper and a few others.
Kate Jackson survived two battles with breast cancer. One in 1987 and one in 1989. After a partial mastectomy and radiotherapy, she won the battle and shared her experience to highlight the importance of mammograms. Recently, she has faced legal troubles with her financial advisor. Hopefully, she’ll overcome it soon.
