American singer, author and actress Cheryl Ladd replaced Farrah Fawcett as her sister "Kris Munroe" in the 1970s television series Charlie's Angels and stayed until the end of the show in 1981. Since then she co-starred in the weekly series One West Waikiki. She released a children's book, The Adventures of Little Nettie Windship in 1996 and followed that with Token Chick: A Woman’s Guide To Golfing With The Boys, an autobiographical book which focused on her love of golf. From 2000 to 2001 Ladd played Annie Oakley on Broadway's version of Annie Get Your Gun.

"I don't think people will ever forget I was an 'Angel', anymore than they'll forget Sally Field was 'The Flying Nun'."

"Two things I take very seriously in life. My golf game and my relationship with God. Neither one is simple."
