Short Story – Dubbed the brainiest of the angels on the television show Charlie’s Angels, Jackson also starred in the 1982 feature film Making Love. At the end of the 1980’s, Jackson started keeping a low profile due to the discovery of breast cancer.
Her treatment started with a lumpectomy and radiation, which seemed to cure the disease. However, in 1989 a recurrence was detected and she underwent a partial mastectomy and six weeks of recovery. At her post mastectomy check-up of two years, no traces of the disease were found.
“The range of emotions you go through is amazing,” Jackson said of her cancer. “But I really made a conscious decision to be positive. When I had a negative thought, I pushed it away.”
