The Cheryl Ladd Bio:
Cheryl Ladd (Cheryl Jean Stoppelmoor) from Huron, South Dakota, began singing with a band called The Music Shop Band during High School. After she graduated she and the band went on tour. The band found themselves in Los Angeles and eventually broke up. Cheryl stayed on in LA to pursue her dream as an actress. Cheryl's big professional break was singing back-up on the cartoon series Josie and the Pussycats. Cheryl worked on 100s of commercials, but it was the 1973 film Jamaica Reef where she was to meet her first husband David Ladd, the son of the famous actor Alan "Laddie" Ladd. Cheryl, in 1974, gave birth to their daughter, Jordan.
In 1976, Cheryl lost the role of Nancy in the series Family to Meredith Baxter Birney. The producers of Family had another hit TV show called Charlie's Angels in which they looking for a replacement for actress Farrah Fawcett. Aaron Spelling and Leonard Goldberg asked Cheryl if she would take the job. Cheryl accepted the role of Jill Munroe's little sister, Kris in 1977. She captured the hearts of America and kept the series alive. During the series Cheryl was able to record two albums, Cheryl Ladd (1978) and Dance Forever (1979). After Charlie's Angels ended in 1981, Cheryl had divorced David Ladd and married Brian Russell. Cheryl moved onto working in many successful television films such as The Grace Kelly Story, Bluegrass and Changes. In 1993, Cheryl appeared in the cult classic film Poison Ivy and in 1994 found herself returning to TV in a new series, One West Waikiki, which is now in reruns on Lifetime.
