Full Biography
Lisa Farringer is an American actress and former model who became a recognizable face in 1970s cult cinema and television. She was born on March 15, 1947, in New York City, New York. Known during her early career by the nickname Annette, she first gained public attention when she was named Miss Golden Globe in 1968.
Her acting career took off in the early 1970s, most notably as a regular performer on the hit sketch comedy series Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In between 1972 and 1973. Farringer is perhaps best remembered for her roles in the Blaxploitation genre, where she was often cast as the "token gorgeous white blonde". Her most prominent film role came in 1973 as Jeri in the classic Coffy, starring alongside Pam Grier. That same year, she appeared in other genre staples such as Cleopatra Jones and The Slams. Throughout the mid-70s, she continued to work in both film and television, appearing in movies like Chikago Poker (1974) and guest-starring in popular series such as The Six Million Dollar Man.
