Meg Foster Career

Career

Foster appeared in John Brown's Body's at Cornell Summer Theater production in 1968. She appeared in The Empire Builders' off-Broadway version in 1968.

Foster took on the lead of Detective Christine Cagney in the Cagney & Lacey TV series when Loretta Swit was unable to reprise her television film role when the film was reimagined into the Cagney & Lacey TV series, before she was replaced by Sharon Gless. "It isn't a pretty tale, no matter who you talk to," entertainment columnist Dick Kleiner wrote about Foster's demise from the show in August 1982: "It isn't a pretty tale." Meg was so hurt and angry that she isn't talking anymore. However, she told people that she looked as though she had been struck by a car." Foster's departure from the show, according to Kleiner's account, cost her other opportunities. "She was an in-demand actress before the news broke," he wrote.

Foster worked in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. She appeared on two episodes of Hawaii Five-O (1973 and 1976), three for the Road (1975), and the Star Trek: "The Muse" (1996).

Bonanza, The Twilight Zone, The F.B.I. Here Come the Brides, Storefront Lawyers, Barnaby Jones, Murder, She Wrote, Miami Vice, Mannix, Le Cosby Show, Quantum Leap, ER. In Hercules, Shea appeared as Hera. Legendary Journeys and Xena: A Warrior Princess. .

"Rowdy" Roddy Piper appeared in films throughout the 1980s, beginning with a role as a woman in a traveling carnival in Carny, starring Gary Busey and Robbie Robertson; the villainous Evil-Lyn in the big-screen version of Masters of the Universe; and Holly in the John Carpenter film They Live.

She had been nominated for the best Actress by a Foreign Actress for the film Ticket to Heaven in 1982. Foster has been active in stage performances, including King Lear and Barabbas, since the 1990s.

Mademoiselle magazine dubbed Foster's striking pale-blue eyes "the eyes of 1979." In a newspaper interview this year, she said that her eyes were not "so distinctive." However, some film and television producers had Foster wear contact lenses to lessen the "distractive" effect in her eyes.
