Catherine Hickland joined the cast of One Life to Live in May 1998 as the charmingly manipulative Lindsay Rappaport.
Born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Ms. Hickland is well-known to television audiences. Her first professional job garnered her nationwide attention as a stewardess in an airline Fly Me advertising campaign. Since then she has starred as Tess Wilder on Loving and The City, enjoyed the dual role of Julie Clegg and Jenny Diamond on Capitol, and played Dr. Courtney Marshall on Texas.
Born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Hickland is no newcomer to
television audiences. Her first professional job got her nationwide attention as a
stewardess in an airline "Fly Me" advertising campaign. Since that time, she has
received exposure in the dual role of Julie Clegg and Jenny Diamond on "Capitol,"
and as Dr. Courtney Marshall on "Texas."
Hickland has also guest-starred on numerous prime-time series, such as "Knight
Rider," "Eight is Enough," "Airwolf" and "Vega$"; and such television movies as
"The Seeding of Sara Burns" and "To Race the Wind." Feature-film credits
include "The Last Married Couple in America" (her first movie, in which she
played George Segal's young "squeeze"), "Witch Craft," "War Zone Zero," "Taxi
Killer," and "Sweet Justice," in which she shows off her karate skills.
Shortly after the cancellation of "Capitol," Catherine moved to Rome, immersing
herself in a new language and a new culture. She lived there for two years, during
which time she made several Italian films. After her return to the United States,
she met her husband, "All My Children" star Michael E. Knight (who plays Tad
Martin). They were married in June, 1992.
In 1995, Catherine starred as Fantine in "Les Miserables" on Broadway. She
performed with the symphony of Lyon on New Year's Eve, 1995, in Lyon, France.
Earlier this year, Catherine staged two sold-out performances of her cabaret,
"Boys on the Side."
Catherine and Michael starred opposite one another on stage in the play, "Run for
Your Wife," in Los Angeles. They now live in Manhattan with their dog and six
cats.
