Noting I’m the ONLY Doper asked this: Heather Locklear.

Cynthia Nixon, who played whatshername in ‘Sex in the City’. (Miranda, maybe? I never followed the show…) I couldn’t tell without looking her up, but I thought she might be around the minimum possible age for whomever you’ve chosen.
We’ve now got more DQs than we need; what I really need is an idea.
ETA: Looked her up - yes, she played ‘Miranda’; no, she’s about 7 years younger than our minimum age. Oh, well…
IQ1: Were you in a show about a teacher who became a superhero?
Yes! I am Connie Selleca!, one of the stars of The Greatest American Hero and the female lead in Hotel!
Trivia note: when Connie was married to Gil Gerard (TV’s Buck Rogers in the 80s), she like to surprise him by faking her suicide. The first few times he panicked, as you would expect, but eventually he just started critiquing her tableaux. She’s currently married to John Tesh. Oh, yeah, and she was in a Christmas made-for-TV movie in 2012.
Very well done, SCAdian!
Well done, indeed, O SCAdian!
