Question & Answer format at the end of the formal interview
In 1995, Morgan completed a one-year commitment starring in the ABC network daytime drama “The City” playing ‘Sydney Chase’, who ran one of the biggest communication conglomerates on the planet. Morgan joked, “I’m playing Rupert Murdoch in drag”. Morgan completed an ABC-TV Special, “Teenage Confidential” that aired in December 1996 and starred in the NBC Movie-of-the Week, “Into the Arms of Danger” which was shot on location in Vancouver and aired during the 1996 February sweeps. During this time she also filmed a guest starring role in an independent feature film, “Shattered Illusions”.
A native of Dallas, Morgan began acting as a child, when her mother enrolled her in drama lessons after she was too shy to give a book report in class. From the age of 10, she performed in children’s and dinner theatre and stock productions in Dallas. This vigorous preparation readied her for the key role of the paranoid murderess, Jennifer Pace Phillips, in the CBS-TV daytime series, “Search for Tomorrow”, a part which Morgan landed six weeks after moving to New York which was the beginning of her television career. Following her stint on “Search for Tomorrow”, Morgan moved to Los Angeles, where she made numerous guest appearances on TV series. She had a recurring role on “Mork & Mindy”, with Robin Williams, as well as a recurring role on “Roseanne”.
You could not complete a Morgan Fairchild biography without one of Morgan’s most popular roles – the original Jenna Wade on “Dallas”, as well as appearing on such series as “Barnaby Jones”, “Happy Days”, “The Bob Newhart Show”, “A Man Called Sloane”, “Police Woman”, “Switch”, “Kojak”, “Big Shamus”, “Perry Mason”, “Burke’s Law”, “Murder, She Wrote”, “Lois & Clark”, “Empty Nest”, “Diagnosis Murder”, “Robin’s Hoods”, “Friends”, and “Cybill”. Morgan also starred in the contemporary film noir mystery “Writers Block” for USA Network. Morgan starred in “Star Command” with Chad Everett for the United/Paramount Network as well as “Dead Man’s Island” with William Shatner, Barbara Eden, Roddy McDowell, and Christopher Atkins, a Movie-of-the-Week for CBS.
