Personal life

Hicks, whose parents were practicing Christians, is a devout Roman Catholic.[3][4] She is married to special effects expert Kevin Yagher and they currently live in Bel-Air.

Career

After appearing on Broadway in the stage version of Tribute, she first rose to prominence as Dr. Faith Coleridge on the soap opera Ryan's Hope 1976 - 1978. In 1979, she co-starred in the television version of The Bad News Bears. But it was her Emmy-nominated portrayl of Marilyn Monroe in the 1980 TV movie Marilyn: The Untold Story that first established her. In 1982, she took the lead role in the comedy/detective series Tucker's Witch opposite Tim Matheson. Supporting roles in movies followed, with appearances in as Dr. Gillian Taylor, Peggy Sue Got Married (both in 1986), and the mother in Child's Play (in 1988). The next year, she starred opposite Tony Danza in She's Out of Control.

In the first half of the 1990s, Hicks found acting work in TV movies, but it wasn't until 1996 when she was cast as Annie Camden on the drama 7th Heaven (opposite fellow Star Trek alum Stephen Collins), which is arguably her most famous role. 7th Heaven was picked up by The CW Television Network after being cancelled after its tenth season, making it the longest-running family drama on television. The show finally ended in May 2007.
