Farrah Fawcett
Known in the ‘70s for: Portraying the role of Jill Munroe on the TV series Charlie’s Angels
Light-haired stunner Farrah Fawcett made her way into the hearts and minds of TV audiences everywhere when she appeared on the small screen for the first time in 1976 as private investigator Jill Munroe on the beloved action TV series Charlie’s Angels, to which she owes the credit for the many Golden Globe and Emmy nominations that she got after. She holds what may be the most noteworthy bikini picture in all of recorded history which has since granted her the status of a sex symbol. There is no doubt that no number of attorneys can argue with her status nor her popularity.
Pam Grier
Known in the ‘70s for: Playing the lead role in blaxploitation movies like Coffy (1973), Foxy Brown (1974), Friday Foster (1975), and Sheba, Baby (1975)
Pam Grier has been regarded as the queen of blaxploitation, but she doesn’t need an attorney to prove her acting prowess as she had already served stellar performances in several women-in-prison films. Blaxploitation was a trend in the media and pop culture of the time, and Grier’s fiercely good looks and mannequin-like physique was just what the prominently male genre lacked.
Her career profited from blaxploitation, and as it faded away, so did her career. She stopped starring in films after Drum (1978) and worked as a supporting actress for the next two decades until Quentin Tarantino had her reanimated for his film Jackie Brown.
