Angie continued to appear in movies, and eventually got her own show Police Woman. She played Sgt. Suzanne “Pepper” Anderson of the Los Angeles Police Department. It was a big deal because it was the first television show about cops to have a woman as the lead. It was also said that she inspired many women to pursue a career in law enforcement.
Where is Angie Dickinson now?
Angie continued to have a bustling career after the show ended. She appeared in television shows and movies up until 2009. Many of her projects in the ’80s were TV movies. In 2001, she made a special appearance in the remake of Ocean’s Eleven as a spectator. Did you catch her in the movie?
Angie had one daughter, known as Nikki with her last husband Burt Bacharach. Angie turned down many roles to take care of Nikki, who had several chronic health conditions including Aspberger’s Syndrome. Sadly, in 2007, Nikki took her own life at the age of 40.
