Mariette Hartley

Mariette Hartley is an American actress, best known for her work in television, but who began her career on stage in her teens. She launched her film career in Ride the High Country, a classic western with Randolph Scott and Joel McCrea. She co-starred in the 1980s situation comedy Goodnight, Beantown alongside Bill Bixby. She also made a memorable guest appearance on Bixby's 1970s TV series, The Incredible Hulk.

During the late 1970s she also appeared with James Garner in an extremely popular series of television commercials advertising Polaroid cameras. The two actors worked so well together that it was often erroneously suggested that they were married in real life. Hartley also appeared in an episode of Garner's TV series The Rockford Files during this period and is also remembered for her earlier role in the Star Trek episode All Our Yesterdays.

She is a granddaughter of American psychologist John B. Watson.

Bears a striking resemblance to the equally statuesque actress Susan Sullivan. She won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for the episode Married of The Incredible Hulk (1978)
