Kovack went on to make two more appearances on Mannix, first in 1972 (with Barry Russo and John Colicos) and again in 1973 in a Stephen Kandel-penned episode which also starred Liam Sullivan and Jack Donner .

Kovack has also starred in a number of feature films, making her debut in the 1960 drama Strangers When We Meet.

Kovack married renowned music conductor Zubin Mehta in 1969, after which she began to focus more on married life than on acting.
