Veronica Hamel
Actress Veronica Hamel was born in Philadelphia (November 20, 1943). She graduated from Temple University, and started her career as a fashion model after being discovered by Eileen Ford. Her first role was playing a model in 1971's Klute.
She started appearing on TV in 1975; at one point she was considered for one of the lead roles on Charlie's Angels, but declined the role. Producer Aaron Spelling cast Jaclyn Smith instead.
