Stephanie Beacham

Beacham debuted in films in 1969's "The Games" as an Olympic hopeful opposite Michael Crawford. She subsequently appeared as a swinger alongside Ava Gardner in Roddy McDowell's "The Devil's Widow" (1971). More recently, she was a nemesis to Shelly Long in the pallid comedy "Troop Beverly Hills" (1989). Beacham has feared better on the small screen, She reprised her role as the bitch-goddess Sable on "Dynasty" for the 1988-89 season. She switched to comedy in the title role of "Sister Kate" (NBC, 1989-90), a nun more familiar with work in the high echelons of power now assigned to run an orphanage. Beacham had the recurring role of Luke Perry's mother on Fox's "Beverly Hills, 90210" and later played the very able Dr. Westphalen for two seasons (1993-95) on NBC's "seaQuest DSV."
