Jaclyn was Kelly Garrett on the series that aired from 1976 until 1981 and has since become an iconic, cult classic.
She rose to fame in 1976 on the hit series Charlie’s Angels. Jaclyn was the only actress to remain on the series for all five years when the show came to a close in 1981.
In 2017 Jaclyn – who did all 110 episodes of the show – is still close to her co-star Cheryl Ladd, who starred as Kris Munroe for 87 episodes, and to Kate Jackson.
But some of her costars have sadly passed.
Farrah Fawcett, who played Jill Munroe, died in 2009 after a long battle with cancer. David who played boss John Bosley died in 1997.
Smith has an incredible work history.
Next the pinup made several TV movies such as 1985’s Florence Nightingale and 1988’s Windmills Of The Gods.
She also got into fashion, designing clothes for K-Mart, which was unusual during that time. She has kept up the line ever since and expanded to bedding and furniture.
In 2003 she revisited Charlie’s Angels by appearing in the film with Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz. And she also popped in the latest film version from director Elizabeth Banks, which was a shock bomb at the box office.

Smith’s last TV movie was Random Acts Of Christmas with Erin Cahill and Kevin McGarry.
She loves her family, her home, gardening, Tchaikovsky, baseball, Gone with the Wind, her mother’s cooking – and her dogs, her website says.
A native of Houston, Texas, Jaclyn put on her first pair of dancing shoes at the age of three. She studied drama at Trinity University and she was soon in productions of ‘Bye Bye Birdie’, ‘West Side Story’, and ‘Gentlemen Prefer Blondes’.
She left Texas to pursue her dream as a dancer. While in New York, an agent believed her classic beauty made her a natural for television cameras and Jaclyn Smith soon came into American homes as the Breck Girl, which led to relationships with Wella Balsam and Max Factor.
While with Max Factor she developed a new scent, Jaclyn Smith’s California. Her signature scent won best mass produced fragrance the year it was launched in 1989.
Hollywood beckoned, and before long she was appearing in popular series such as ‘McCloud’, ‘The Rookies’ and ‘Switch’. In 1976 Jaclyn starred as Kelly Garrett on ‘Charlie’s Angels’ and was the only actor to continue with the series for its five year network run. Following ‘Charlie’s Angels’ Jaclyn earned a Golden Globe nomination for her critically acclaimed portrayal of the legendary first lady in ‘Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy’, one of the most highly rated telefilms of all time.

Frequently called the ‘Queen of Mini-Series’, Jaclyn starred in such well received mini-series as, ‘Rage of Angels’, ‘George Washington’, ‘Rage of Angels: The Story Continues’, ‘The Bourne Identity’ and ‘Family Album’. One of her favorite roles was the title character in ‘Florence Nightengale’.
Notably, Jaclyn has compiled an impressive filmography of more than 50 films and TV appearances.
In 1989 Jaclyn was honored with a star on the world famous Hollywood Walk of Fame. Jaclyn co-starred in the CBS drama, ‘The District’ portraying DA Vanessa Cavanaugh, has appeared on episodes of ‘Faith and Hope’ and stared as Judge Kay Woodbury in Hallmark’s production of ‘Ordinary Miracles’, which aired in May 2005.
Her show stopping appearance on the 2006 Emmy telecast led Bravo TV’s producers to cast Jaclyn as the celebrity host of Bravo’s weekly competitive reality series, ‘Shear Genius’, which aired in March, 2007, and Season 2 in June 2008.
More recently Jaclyn appeared on NBC’s ‘Law and Order SVU’ CBS’s ‘CSI: Crime Scene Investigation’ and in Hallmark’s new movie ‘Bridal Waves’.

In 1985 Jaclyn entered the business world with the introduction of her collection of women’s apparel and accessories for Kmart stores. She pioneered the concept of celebrities developing their own Brands rather than merely endorsing others. Since that time more than 100 million women have purchased clothing or accessories bearing her name. Awareness of the Jaclyn Smith name and brand by women 35-60 years of age is currently higher than 80% making her one of the best recognized people in America. Industry authority Woman’s Wear Daily reported that the signature Jaclyn Smith line had the highest consumer awareness of any private label apparel brand in the country.
With her sincere desire to help consumers attain beautiful home décor at an affordable price, Jaclyn began working with one of the world’s largest home textile wholesalers, Trend /Fabricut on an exclusive fabric and trimming program in February 2007.
In September 2008 Jaclyn launched her new line of bed and bath decor at Kmart and has since introduced outdoor living, home furnishings and seasonal items. The items bearing her name reflect many of the inspiring details and exceptional design of furnishings and accessories found in her personal collection and her exceptional eye for detail translates effortlessly to timeless designs.

Along with her long time friend and famed celebrity hair stylist, José Eber, Jaclyn created a new collection of hair fashions, STYLE by Jaclyn Smith in partnership with Paula Young which launched in October 2008.
In 2010 Jaclyn collaborated with her husband, Dr. Brad Allen, a renowned medical researcher, to develop a family of luxurious cleansers and moisturizers, and protective skin care products to work with her straightforward daily regimen – and to work in perfect concert with each other.
In 2022 Jaclyn Smith launched a new clothing line. This clothing line, meticulously designed and managed, is now available at Nordstrom Rack and HSN.
‘I’ve been very fortunate’ says the woman who has been named one of the ‘Most Beautiful People in the World’ by Harpers Bazaar, US, TV Guide and People Magazine on two separate occasions. ‘My work has always been very exciting and interesting, but to me, my family must come first. I have no regrets.’
It is perhaps the dancer’s sense of balance which keeps the many facets of her life in harmony. Husband Brad, son Gaston Anthony and daughter Spencer Margaret, keep her centered and serve as her inspiration. ‘That’s truly where my heart lies’.
She has kept up the line ever since and expanded to bedding and furniture
Meanwhile, in 2022 Kate Jackson said she quit Charlie’s Angels because the show was ‘killing’ her life.
The actress – who missed out in a role on Kramer Vs Kramer due to her commitments playing Sabrina Duncan in the iconic Aaron Spelling-produced 1970s show – didn’t want to ‘sacrifice’ her quality of life for a TV series.
She told the US edition of Closer magazine: ‘I finally had to say, ‘Wait a minute, there’s my life, and there’s the show, and one is killing the other, so something has to go’. I sure as hell wasn’t about to sacrifice my life for a television show.’
She added: ‘My life was all geared to work, even though those people around the country know me and like me, they aren’t in my living room at the end of the day when I’m lonely and hassled.
‘I’d had it with Hollywood’s long hours, the politics, the backstabbing and the gossip. It was not a great town for having your feet on the ground and living a normal life.’
After fleeing Tinseltown, Kate – who has son Charles – moved to a 125 acre farm in Virginia in the 90s after making a few more projects such as a remake of Cary Grant movie ‘Topper’, appearing other TV and films and founding a production company.
In 2003 she revisited Charlie’s Angels by appearing in the film with Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz. And she also popped in the latest film version from director Elizabeth Banks , which was a shock bomb at the box office. Jaclyn was seen in the training scene
Kate also reminisced about her late friend and co-star Farrah Fawcett – who died in 2009, aged 62, from cancer – and the ‘best time’ they worked together for one season with fellow Angel Smith, now 76.
Kate said: ‘We had the best time that year that she did ‘Charlie’s Angels’ because we got into the habit of just sort of ad-libbing on camera and trying to make the other laugh, or doing something unexpected.’
The ‘Scarecrow and Mrs King’ star – who battled breast cancer in the late 80s – shared the ‘important’ life lesson of hearing with ‘your heart’.
Kate said: ‘Listen with your ears, but hear with your heart. It’s one of the most important things I’ve ever learned. It’s true in art, in life – in everything.’
She has always had a great figure: Season One of Hellride in 1976
