BIOGRAPHY: Morgan Brittany, born in Los Angeles, CA, was like most little girls and wanted to to be an actress. She began her acting career as a child under the name Suzanne Cupito. Her big break came in Gypsy (1962), where she co-starred with her favorite actress, Natalie Wood (I). Morgan's career would continue to grow and would make a name for herself when she landed a role in TV's "Dallas" (1978). She continues to act but now loves the job of raising her children.
TRIVIA:
- While at home on May 23, 2006, was startled by the sound of high-powered sports car careening out of control towards her. The Ferarri Testarossa was traveling down the winding Cornell Rd in Agoura Hills, California at a high rate of speed before losing control, flipping over, and landing in a horse coral owned by the actress. Two men died in the accident, one of them an off-duty officer with the CHP (California Highway Patrol) in charge of apprehending speeders on mountain roads. The actress was shaken, but not injured in the crash.
- Her agent wanted to turn down the role of 'Vivien Leigh' (qv) in _The Scarlett O'Hara War (1980) (TV)_ (qv) because the part was designated as a day player. She insisted on doing the role, believing that everyone would be waiting to see the actress playing Leigh. Sure enough, as Scarlett, she was on the cover of countless TV supplements and magazines.
- Best remembered by the public for her role as Katherine Wentworth on the 1980s soap opera Dallas (1978).
- As an adult, she had trouble getting work in the early 1970s because producers were going for less pretty, more hippie-like, troubled youth. It all changed, she says, the night _"Charlie's Angels" (1976)_ (qv) premiered on television. After that, she had no problems.
- Favorite actress is 'Natalie Wood (I)' (qv)
- Was cast in bit roles portraying 'Vivien Leigh' (qv) in both _The Scarlett O'Hara War (1980) (TV)_ (qv) and _Gable and Lombard (1976)_ (qv) because her dark hair and very fine features give her a passing resemblance to the actress.
- Attended the 2006 Twilight Zone Convention at the Hilton Hasbrouck Heights, Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey, August 12-13, 2006.
