Meg Foster Biography

Meg Foster (born Megan Foster on May 10, 1948) is an American actress best known for her icy blue eyes and her striking resemblance to Kirstie Alley. Perhaps her most famous roles are as Hester Prynne in The Scarlet Letter (1979), Ingrid in Ticket to Heaven and Holly in They Live (1988). Foster was born in Reading, Pennsylvania. She studied acting at the Neighborhood Playhouse in New York.

She played Detective Christine Cagney for the first six episodes of the first season of Cagney and Lacey (following Loretta Swit, who played the character in the TV movie pilot), until she was replaced by Sharon Gless. Allegedly, CBS was unhappy with her performance. She also guest starred in an episode of Hawaii Five-0 & the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine season four episode "The Muse." She is also known for playing the villainous Evil-Lyn in the big screen version of Masters of the Universe and the Greek goddess Hera in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. Since the 1990s, she has acted mainly in stage productions, including "King Lear" and "Barabbas."
