In 1972, she landed what was to become her most iconic film role, starring opposite Dustin Hoffman in Sam Peckinpah’s Straw Dogs. For almost two decades film fans could see here on television and in motion-pictures practically every day in classics with everyone from Kirk Douglas to Michael Caine such as Billion Dollar Brain (1967), Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1973), and the classic Dirty Mary Crazy Larry (1974).
NANCY KOVACK
An epic in the making. Nancy Kovack will be attending the convention in September! Her list of television and motion picture credits is extensive from The Man from U.N.C.L.E. to Perry Mason. She was Queenie, the Joker's gun mull on Batman, the beautiful Sophia in Tarzan and the Valley of Gold (1966), kissed Captain Kirk on Star Trek, played the recurring role of Sheila Sommers on Bewitched, played Annie Oakley in the Three Stooges comedy The Outlaws Is Coming (1965), worked with Vincent Price in Diary of a Madman (1963), was the high priestess Medea in Jason and the Argonauts (1963)... and the list goes on.

CONSTANCE TOWERS
She co-starred with Frankie Laine in Bring Your Smile Along (1955), and appeared in exceptionally strong ingénue roles in The Horse Soldiers (1959) starring John Wayne and Sergeant Rutledge (1960) opposite Jeffrey Hunter. Director Samuel Fuller cast her against type in some of his highly offbeat dramas. She played a stripper girlfriend in Shock Corridor (1963) and in The Naked Kiss (1964) gave a no-holds-barred performance as a former prostitute trying to clean up her act. While TV guest appearances were frequent on such shows The Outer Limits, The Zane Grey Theatre, Perry Mason and others.

Science-fiction fans know her as Arlette in the Yul Brynner classic, Westworld (1973). So you can imagine the behind-the-stories she will share during the weekend!
TIMOTHY BUSFIELD
Some people know him from the hit comedy Revenge of the Nerds (1984) and its 1987 sequel, and as a cast member of Trapper John, M.D. But we all know him as Elliot Weston on the television series thirtysomething; Mark, the brother-in-law of Kevin Costner in Field of Dreams; and Danny Concannon on the television series The West Wing. In 1991 he received a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for thirtysomething.

But who can forget her performance on Star Trek or as little Lisabeth on Walt Disney's Old Yeller (1957)?
LYNN-HOLLY JOHNSON
Film buffs loved her performance in The Watcher in the Woods (1980) and Ice Castles (1978). But it was her professional figure skating career that helped land her the athletic role of Bibi, the attractive Bond girl in the Roger Moore classic, For Your Eyes Only (1981). She rarely does autographing events so fans of James Bond movies have a rare opportunity to meet her and get her autograph!
KATHLEEN BELLER
Kathleen Beller was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture Actress in a Supporting Role for her role in Promises in the Dark (1979) and was well known for her role as Kirby Anders on the prime time soap opera Dynasty.

His two most famous television roles were, B.J. and the Bear (197 as a teen idol), My Two Dads (1987), the science-fiction classic TekWar (1994) and the sequels.
LAURA CAYOUETTE

She is known for her roles in Enemy of the State (1998), Green Lantern (2011), Now You See Me (2013), and worked with Quentin Tarantino in Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004) and Django Unchained (2012).

Geri is best known for portraying Jan Brady in nine episodes of The Brady Bunch Hour during the 1976–77 television season. Her appearances as Jan have been referred to as 'Fake Jan'. She has embraced this fan-created moniker as a badge of honor and her personal brand. We all love Geri and are pleased to know she will be returning to the convention in August to meet and greet her fans.
