She played Randy, the blonde stewardess in the 1980 comedy "Airplane!". She co-starred with Tony Randall in the 1981 television pilot" Sidney Shorr: A Girl's Best Friend". By the time this became the television series "Love, Sidney", she had won the lead role in the 1981–1983 television version of the film "Private Benjamin", so her "Sidney Shorr" role was played in "Love, Sidney" by Swoosie Kurtz. Earlier, she had been a regular on two short-lived series, "Working Stiffs" and "Goodtime Girls". She also played Liz Drever in 1984, in "The Flying Doctors", episodes 2, 3 and 4, in Australia.
