Since her big break as one of the beloved “Charlie’s Angels,” Cheryl Ladd has enjoyed a career that has traversed television, film, Broadway, and beyond.

Cheryl’s last movie, “A Cowgirl’s Song,” can now be seen on Netflix. “A Cowgirl’s Song” also features original music by The Imaginaries.

Cheryl was last seen in the Lifetime Christmas movie “Christmas Unwrapped” as part of their It’s A Wonderful Lifetime event. She also guest-starred on HBO’s “Ballers” and Showtime’s “Ray Donovan,” where she played a foul-mouthed version of Vanna White. Next, she starred in FX’s “American Crime Story: The People V. O.J. Simpson” playing Linell Shapiro, the wife of Simpson’s defense attorney Robert Shapiro, portrayed by John Travolta. She can also be found in the 2017 thriller “Unforgettable” directed by Denise Di Novi.

Cheryl is an ambassador for Childhelp, one of the largest national non-profit organizations dedicated to the research, prevention, and treatment of child abuse.

In the summer of 2023, Cheryl’s life took an unexpected turn when she was diagnosed with Stage 2 Triple Negative breast cancer, one of the most aggressive forms. Her medical team immediately sprang into action to save her life. Cheryl has successfully completed her treatment and is now living her best life!

Born and raised in Huron, South Dakota, Ladd moved to L.A. intent on pursuing her dream of becoming an actress. In just a short time, she got her first professional break as the singing voice of 'Melody' on the cartoon series, "Josie and the Pussycats." Ladd quickly added a string of significant credits to her resume, including the comedy/variety series, "The Ken Berry WOW Show," with Steve Martin and Teri Garr. Ladd was then cast in the role of 'Kris Munroe' on "Charlie's Angels" and was instantly catapulted into stardom over the four years on the show.
