Bride's 66/67

a closeup on Shelley from a pic
from Bride's magazine, Dec 1966/Jan 1967

Bride's magazine was and is one of the most widely circulated mags that cater to brides and all their needs. It contains bridal and bridal-entourage fashion tips (as well as groom and groomsmen), food and nutrition writeups, health and fitness advice, beauty tips, planning and location articles and more. Shelley appeared on the pages of Bride's magazine's December 1966/January 1967 issue. She appeared on several spreads throughout the issue. In the spread called "Jeunesse Is: Slips Showing - By Design" (which translates to "Youth Is: Slips Showing - By Design"), she modeled a youthful wedding gown with a Sabrina neckline and notched cap sleeves. The modified empire-waist slip-style column gown had embossed details and satin ribbons around the upper chest and near the hem. An elbow-length veil, white opera gloves and matching white footwear finished her look. Pearly earrings and a lovely bouquet of flowers accessorized and completed her look. Shelley looked like the perfect June bride.

New Angel in 1979

a closeup of Shelley from a promo pic
for Charlie's Angels, 1979

Shelley became Angel no. 5 in 1979 when she joined the cast of Charlie's Angels. Her character was Tiffany Welles, a Boston-bred (originally Connecticut-bred) policewoman who was the daughter of one of Charlie's oldest friends. Shelley was already a Supermodel when she joined the hit TV series and was known worldwide as THE Charlie Girl in those Revlon Charlie TV commercials and print advertisements. She auditioned, went though a screen test, and even a personality test; but what really got her the part, it seems, was the headline "THE Charlie Girl becomes Charlie's newest Angel" which was going through Angels exec producer Aaron Spelling's head as he was choosing TV's latest cherub. Also, just like the original Angels team of Kate Jackson, Farrah Fawcett and Jaclyn Smith, Shelley had good rapport with her new co-Angels Cheryl Ladd and Jaclyn; and the three photographed so well together.

joining Charlie's Angels, 1979

And just like the Angels before her, as soon as the announcement of her casting was made, the paparazzi was all over her. Many things (true and untrue) were written about her. "Yesterday, I was a schnook, and today I can't get across the street" is how Shelley described her sudden rise to Hollywood superstardom. "I go through phases of not believing it, thinking we're talking about a third person who's not here in the room at the moment," she said of her sudden Hollywood fame. "It has been quite a whirl," she added. And her casting was even mentioned in the evening news - it was that big a deal. "I couldn't believe it. What was I doing in the evening news," she exclaimed at the time. "I had press people crawling in my windows," she told E! in 2002.

Knit Your Own Thing

a closeup of Shelley from an ad
for Dawn Yarns, 1972

Shelley was spotted by  A&P supermarket heir Huntington Hartford at a debutante ball when she was just 14 years old and he urged her to try modeling. Shelley wasn't interested at first. But then she was taught never to close doors on opportunities that came her way; so she decided to take a peek. She ended up in model agent Eileen Ford's office in New York (her mother, a former model herself, and Mrs. Ford were acquainted); and the rest is history. She became one of the top Ford Supermodels of all time. But "It was never a thing where she was going to be the best model in the world; she simply became one of the best more or less in spite of herself," Eileen Ford said of Shelley.

Shelley in an ad for Dawn Yarns, 1972

In 1972, Shelley appeared in an ad for Dawn Hand Knitting Yarns with the tagline "Knit Your Own Thing With Dawn Yarns." Dawn Yarns were made by the American Thread Company, a foremost American manufacturer of threads and yarns. Their latest at the time were yarns made of polyester/acrylic fibers in bright colors that stayed bright, wash after wash. The yarns were easy to work with, stayed soft and kept their fit and shape. So whipping up a skirt, bikini overalls, knickers or any of the latest fashion items in the newest and brightest colors were finally possible with Dawn Hand Knitting Yarns. In the ad, Shelley wore a multicolored knitted skirt with a brightly-colored top and finished her outfit off with matching footwear, hose and accessories. She also wore a knitted vest over a shirt and knickers ensemble and finished it off with matching footwear, hose and accessories. In both outfits, Shelley looked chic and up-to-the-minute.

Trackdown: Finding the Goodbar Killer, 1983

October 2023 will be the 40th anniversary of the telefilm Trackdown: Finding the Goodbar Killer. Initially released on October 15, 1983, the film was based on the case that inspired the Judith Rossener novel Looking for Mr. Goodbar. Based on the brutal and shocking murder of Roseann Quinn in January of 1973 (Quinn was a late-20s schoolteacher for deaf children in New York City), this particular telefilm was a dramatization and recreation of the investigation into the 1973 homicide - with Quinn renamed Mary Alice Nolan. In the film, George Segal played New York detective John Grafton who only had a cartoon drawing found at the crime scene as lead. In the course of his investigation, he meets Logan Gay (Shelley Hack), Mary Alice's friend and co-teacher. Logan would later help Grafton in his investigation. Tracy Pollan played Eileen Grafton, John Grafton's daughter.

It was also the year she starred in her second TV series, Cutter to Houston, with Alec Baldwin and Jim Metzler.

of the Tales from the Crypt
episode "The Assassin", 1994

Shelley starred in an episode of Tales from the Crypt in 1994. The series was based on the horror comic anthology series of the same name which was published in the 1950s. The crypt keeper introduced and ended every episode during is entire run. In December 7, 1994, Shelley appeared in the season 6 episode called "The Assassin." She played Janet McKay, the wife of a suspected government assassin gone AWOL, who was finally tracked down and was going to be eliminated. Shelley gave a fine performance in this must-see episode. Corey Feldman, Jonathan Banks, Chelsea Field and Marshall R. Teague all appeared in the episode as well. It is currently available on DVD. Let's hope it's released on Blu-ray soon.

The current Charlie's Angels team was asked to share what it took for them to look great - their diets and fitness routines. And TV's three gorgeous cherubs were happy to share their daily meals and exercise regimens - and they added a few comments as well.

Spring Blooms in Charlie Country

for Charlie perfume, 1981

Shelley was THE quintessential Charlie Girl and appeared in many, many ads for the brand around the world. She was THE Charlie Girl from 1976 to 1982; and she catapulted the brand (as well as herself) to iconic status. Ads (as well as many promotional materials) with her image appeared all over the world. Shelley's gorgeous, sexy and young (not to mention confident and independent) image was an inspiration to many women worldwide. She embodied the kind of woman women of that era aspired to be - liberated, approachable and beautiful.

for Charlie by Revlon, 1981

In 1981, she appeared in an advertisement/writeup for Charlie's latest color and fragrance promotion called "Spring Blooms in Charlie Country." Energy, vitality, glowing good health, humor and intelligence were all the words that described THE Charlie Girl and the brand's latest colors embodied all those attributes. In fact, Charlie's latest collection could be called art because everything about it was based on a painting that LeRoy Neiman created especially for Charlie (Neiman was one of America's foremost artists who updated the Impressionist breakthrough with his depiction of TV/media celebrities and events in vibrant colors and spectacular imagery.) LeRoy Neiman's artwork became Charlie's new look for spring of 1981 - from color, to mood, to packaging, to bottle design and all. Of course, THE Charlie Girl Shelley was the inspiration for it.

Shelley in a promo pic for Night Court, 1984

In 1984, Shelley joined the cast of the nighttime sitcom Night Court for its second season. She was cast to play public defender Christine Sullivan, who was going to be romantically involved with Judge Harry Stone (played by Harry Anderson). But when the series started shooting, at the last minute, producer Reinhold Weege decided she wasn't right for the part. And Shelley felt the same way. "What happened was the role was changed," Shelley explained, "Instead of being a funny lady, as she was in the reading, they had changed her into a straight woman." She admitted, "It wasn't working, and when comedy doesn't work, just forget it - leave." Shelley added, "I love to do comedy. I wanted to do it. But the concept just didn't work, and that's what I told them. I'm sad not to be doing the show, but everybody was very supportive. The cast was great, but what's the point if it's not working?" So the actress and the producer mutually and amicably agreed to call the whole thing off.  Ellen Foley was brought in for that season to replace Shelley - as a new character, public defender Billie Young.
