Joanna Going

Joanna Going first caught the public's attention during her stints on two popular NBC soap operas in the mid to late 1980s: on "Search for Tomorrow" she was ingenue Evie Stone and on "Another World," psychic Lisa Grady. The ravishing oval-faced brunette also appeared in a variety of stage productions in western MA and off-Broadway before landing her first primetime gig--a busted pilot for a sci-fi series in which she played a frontier sheriff trying to maintain peace while raising her two younger siblings. Going was seen to better effect as the governess with mysterious ties to her employers in the primetime remake of the Gothic horror soap opera "Dark Shadows" (NBC, 1991). On the ABC comedy-drama "Going to Extremes," shot on location in Jamaica, she was a serious medical student attending school in the Caribbean.
