American actress and artist.
A four-time Emmy Award nominee and six-time Golden Globe Award nominee, Fawcett rose to international fame

1968 in commercials and guest roles on television.
During the 1970s, she appeared in numerous television series, including recurring roles on Harry O (1974–76)
and
The Six Million Dollar Man
(1974–78) with then husband, film and television star Lee Majors.
Her breakthrough role came in 1976, when she was cast as Jill Munroe in the ABC series Charlie's Angels,
alongside
Kate Jackson
and
Jaclyn Smith
.
The show propelled all three to stardom, but especially Fawcett (then billed as Farrah Fawcett-Majors).

third and fourth seasons (1978–80).
