Kate Jackson was born Catherine Elise Jackson in Birmingham, Alabama on the 29 October 1948.

She spent her early adulthood in summer stock, in training at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, and as a page and tour guide at the NBC studios in Rockefeller Center.

Anxious to burst forth with reams of dialogue as a film and TV actress, Jackson found herself in the utterly non-speaking role of a glamorous ghost on the mid-1960s daytime TV serial Dark Shadows.

She was allowed to flap her gums a little more often as Jill Danko on TV's The Rookies (1973-76).
