Actress Linda Evans has personified beauty and grace to American television viewers for over five decades, from her role as Audra Barkley, a daughter of the Old West on The Big Valley (1965) (1965-1969 on ABC) to the glamorous Krystle Carrington on Dinastia (1981) (1981-1989 on ABC) to Hell's Kitchen (2004), the British competitive cooking reality show she won in 2009. Linda became one of the most celebrated female television stars of the 1980s. For her role as Krystle, wife of an oil multimillionaire played by John Forsythe and good girl counterpart to Joan Collins' evil Alexis, Linda was nominated five times for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a TV Drama series (every year from 1982 to 1986). She won in 1982, sharing the honor with Barbara Bel Geddes of rival primetime television soap opera Dallas (1978). Linda won five People's Choice Awards as Favorite Actress in a Drama Series in 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, and 1986, and was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead actress in a Drama Series in 1983. For her contribution to the television industry, Linda has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6834 Hollywood Blvd. Linda was born on November 18, 1942, as Linda Evenstad in Hartford, Connecticut, the second of three daughters to parents who were professional dancers. When Linda was six months old, her family moved to Hollywood. At age 14, Linda was encouraged to take drama classes to overcome her shyness. At 15, she joined a friend who was auditioning for a television commercial. Linda got the part. A short time later, Linda earned her first guest-starring role on a major television series, Bachelor Father (1957), starring John Forsythe, whose career would become eternally tied to Linda when they portrayed the powerful Carringtons on Dynasty. She went on to guest-star on The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet (1952), Caravana (1957), Meu Marciano Favorito (1963) and other staples of the 1960s before landing the role of Audra, daughter of Big Valley matriarch Victoria Barkley, played by Barbara Stanwyck. Between her Audra years and her portrayal of Krystle, Linda was rarely off the airwaves, guest starring on shows that ranged from McCloud (1970) to Arquivo Confidencial (1974), from the miniseries North and South, Book II (1986) to the primetime drama Hunter (1976), co-starring Linda as secret agent Marty Shaw. After Dynasty, Linda decided there was something more to life than Hollywood and moved to the Pacific Northwest, where she began an extraordinary journey of self-discovery. But she returned to performing frequently, starring in the stage play, Legends, and winning the Hell's Kitchen competition while working under Michelin-starred chef Marco Pierre White. Linda's often lavish and luxurious life has rivaled Krystle Carrington's. She has dined with queens and presidents, been romanced by the rich and famous, and today, what Linda treasures most is the wisdom she has gained along the way.

Linda Gary was an American voice actress from Los Angeles, California. She was in the prime of her career in the 1980s. She voiced four major female characters in "He-Man and the Masters of the Universe" (1983-1985): the benevolent Sorceress of Castle Grayskull, the heroic Teela (the Captain of the Royal Guard), Queen Marlena (He-Man's mother), and the ambitious villainess Evil-Lyn. In the spin-off series "She-Ra: Princess of Power" (1985-1986), Gary voiced the evil sorceress Shadow Weaver, the animal-themed super-villainess Scorpia, the rebel leader Glimmer, the benevolent witch Madame Razz, and the inventor Entrapta (sidekick and only friend to the villainess Catra). In 1944, Gary was born in Los Angeles California. In 1967, Gary married the actor Charles Howerton. She became the stepmother to his daughter from a previous wedding, and later had two daughters of her own. In the early 1970s, she and her husband were living in Italy. She was hired to perform voice work, dubbing Italian films into English. Gary returned to the United States in 1974, and was interested in starting a professional career as a voice actor. She received acting lessons from veteran voice actor Daws Butler (1916 - 1988). Among her earliest performances was voicing various female characters in the animated series "Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle" (1980), the first adaptation of Tarzan for television animation. She even voiced Tarzan's original love interest, Jane Porter, but only for a single episode. Gary voiced numerous characters for Filmation, Hanna-Barbera, Marvel Productions, and Disney Television Animation over the following decades. She also worked in dubbing Japanese anime films, such as "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" (1984). For "Ghostbusters" (1986), Gary voiced the only two major female villains in the series: the mist-controlling ghost Mysteria and the vamp-like sorceress Apparitia. Gary's last major role in television was playing May Parker in several early episodes of the animated series "Spider-Man" (1994-1998). Her character was Spider-Man/Peter Parker's aunt and surrogate mother. On October 5, 1995, Gary died at her home in North Hollywood, California. Her death was caused by brain cancer, a disease with which she had been struggling for a while. She died a month before her 51st birthday. Despite her relatively short career, Gary is fondly remembered for her roles in animation.
