Details of Betty Buckley and the Ticket Luck value

Betty Buckley
Betty Lynn Buckley is a Tony Award-winning American theater, film, and television actress and singer.

Buckley was born in Fort Worth, Texas, the daughter of Betty Bob, a dancer and journalist, and Ernest Buckley, a retired lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Air Force and former dean of engineering at the University of Texas at Arlington.

While a student at Texas Christian University, she was crowned Miss Fort Worth in 1966 and was runner-up in the Miss Texas competition. Buckley was then invited to perform at the Miss America pageant in Atlantic City. After returning to T.C.U. to earn her college degree, she toured Asia to visit soldiers wounded in the Vietnam War. After this, she worked for a time as a reporter for the Fort Worth newspaper.

Buckley was married in 1972 and divorced in 1979, and has never had children. She lives on a ranch in Parker County, Texas, and participates in NCHA cutting horse competitions while continuing to give concerts across the country.

Buckley made her Broadway debut in 1969 and has been called The Voice of Broadway by New York Magazine. Her version of Memory in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Cats established her reputation. Buckley has recorded 13 solo albums and now tours extensively across the U.S. each year. She is also a composer - her first recording contains mostly songs she wrote.

Buckley has covered many songs by country music singer Mary Chapin Carpenter during her shows. She has professed that the country singer is among her favorite musical-poet-songwriter-singers. Carpenter once attended one of Buckley's performances and afterwards presented her with a personal letter of thanks. Buckley keeps the note in a frame and has said that receiving it was one of the highlights of my life.

Buckley sang Memory from Cats at the Kennedy Center Honors in December 2006 as part of the tribute to Andrew Lloyd Webber. In 2007, Buckley appeared with Quintessence at Lincoln Center in its Great American Songbook series.

She is perhaps best known for the 1977-81 TV drama Eight is Enough. She joined the show in its second season after the original star, Diana Hyland. Hyland's character died, and Buckley was cast as Sandra Sue Abbott, who went on to become stepmother to the 'eight' (kids) to which the series' title refers.

Buckley also gave a much-remembered performance in the original movie version of Carrie in 1976. In 1977, she recorded a solo on the song Walking in Space, in the movie Hair.

She played the role of a country singer in Bruce Beresford's film Tender Mercies, in which she sang the awarded song Over You. She also appeared in the Woody Allen's film Another Woman and in Roman Polanski's Frantic. In 2001-03, she played a role in seasons 4-6 of the HBO series Oz.

She also has guest-starred in a number of television series, including Without a Trace, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and Monk. She guest-starred in a Christmas Special of the Television Series Remember Wenn and sang the memorable Christmas song You Make It Christmas. In addition, she served as the producer of the PBS series Wishbone.

More recently, Buckley appeared in the pilot episode of ABC's new Sunday primetime hit, Brothers & Sisters, only to be replaced by Sally Field. She also appeared in the horror movie The Happening.

Buckley has made 13 solo albums and now performs extensively across the U.S. each year in such venues as the Cafe Carlyle and The Blue Note in New York City and the Cinegrill in Los Angeles. She frequently performs with her band, Quintessence.

Buckley has recently been signed to Playbill Records, which released two recordings of the singer. A new album with Quintessence was released on February 14, 2008.

In 2008, Buckley appeared at Feinstein's at The Regency, made a debut at the Birdland Jazz Club and at the Kennedy Center in October for An Evening with Betty Buckley.

Buckley also has been a teacher of song interpretation and communication for over thirty years and teaches at the University of Texas at Arlington. In addition, Betty Buckley conducts master classes at Fort Worth's Casa Ma?ana playhouse.
