LINDA EVANS | 79

American actress Linda Evans was shot into the limelight when she joined The Big Valley from 1965 to 1969 and Dynasty from 1981 to 1989. However, when the latter ended, she somehow became inactive from acting although she still made some occasional television appearances. She was diagnosed with idiopathic edema, which incited her to make investments in fitness programs, which eventually led her to build her chain of fitness centers.

Evans’ first guest-starring role was in the episode of Bachelor Father in 1960, which starred John Forsythe, with whom she would co-star on Dynasty 20 years later. After several guest roles between 1960 and 1962 in The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, she gained her first regular role in The Big Valley. No wonder that even in her 70s, Linda remains to be fit and sexy. With the business and career that she has, she surely made a fortune for herself, enough to sustain her needs in the event that she decides to retire.
