Stefanie Powers – 78

Stefanie Powers was a near-constant presence on television throughout the 1970s and 1980s. She became noted for her consistently accurate portrayals of smart, seductive, and clever women. The Hollywood native began her acting career as a youngster, with early roles in films such as Experiment in Terror and McClintock! Despite being canceled after only one season, her eponymous role as The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. nearly made her a household name.

Soon after, Powers became a star in the heyday of made-for-television movies, appearing in shows like A Death in Canaan. However, her portrayal as Jennifer Hart on Hart to Hart was one she would cherish for the rest of her career. Powers continued the wildlife preservation work that she had been so concerned about in the years that followed. She also continued to act, albeit less frequently, including a return as Jennifer Hart alongside several made-for-TV movies. Powers explored new roles in cinema, television, and, most significantly, the world thanks to personal life as rewarding as her extensive acting investments.
