KATE JACKSON
Kate Jackson was born in Birmingham, Alabama, to parents Ruth and Hogan Jackson, a business executive. She attended The Brooke Hill School for Girls in Mountain Brook before enrolling at the University of Mississippi as a history major. However, Jackson left college before graduating to pursue her passion for acting, studying at the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts. She rose to fame in the 1970s as one of the original stars of Charlie’s Angels, playing the role of Sabrina Duncan. The show became a cultural phenomenon, and Jackson’s portrayal of the intelligent and stylish detective made her a household name.
Interestingly, it was Kate Jackson who suggested renaming the show from its original title, The Alley Cats, to Charlie’s Angels—a decision that undoubtedly contributed to its iconic status. Now 74, Jackson has retired from show business but remains a beloved figure in Hollywood. With a net worth of $10 million, she has enjoyed a successful career and is set to share her life story with the release of her memoirs. Her legacy as one of the original Angels continues to inspire fans and aspiring actors alike.
