Sharon Gless

Gless, who was best known for her Chris Cagney role on the female cop series "Cagney & Lacey" (1981), married the producer of the show, Barney Rosenzweig, in 1991. A year earlier, Rosenzweig had divorced his wife of 11 years, Barbara Corday, who was the creator/writer of "Cagney & Lacey" (1981).

By 1982, she was the last remaining performer to be working under a standard studio contract, having been signed to a 10-year contract in 1974.

A female fan was sentenced to 6 years for breaking into her home with a rifle in 1990.
