Sharon Lawrence
Episode description
It's NYPD Blue's Sylvia Sipowicz! Yes, the woman whose provocative scenes were a major part of this groundbreaking, iconic TV series.
But wait! Sharon has also been a constant presence on television since then, in shows like:
- Shameless
- How to Get Away with Murder
- The Ranch
- Me, Myself and I
- Queen Sugar
- Rizzoli & Isles
- Drop Dead Diva
- One Tree Hill
- Monk
- Desperate Housewives
- Ladies Man
- Fired Up
- and now! Dynasty. Yes, Dynasty. It's a new, updated version and you can see her on the October 26 episode on the CW.
You'll hear Sharon, who's also on the board of the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, reflect on:
- provocative TV
- landing her famous gigs
- moving from small-town to big-city life
- her husband, parents, in-laws and friends
- life, love and acting
- fax machines, ticker tape and "the breakdown"
Enjoy!
