== Career ==


'''Anne Lockhart''''s career started at a very young age. Her first work was at age four, when she starred in ''T is for Tumbleweed''. This short subject film was nominated for an academy award. She spent time with her mother around the set, where she would learn about the workings of the business. She even appeared in several episodes of Lassie. She had no doubts that she wanted to follow in her family's footsteps.
In 1986 she married assistant director Adam C. Taylor, the son of actor Buck Taylor (Newly O'Brien on ''[[w:Gunsmoke|Gunsmoke]]''), and grandson of actor Dub Taylor. They had two children, Carly and Zane. Adam died in an accident in 1994.


Anne is an expert [[w:Equestrianism|equestrian]]. She was won championships in cutting, reining, team penning, and barrel racing. In 1983, she helped found Pro-Celebrity Rodeos, a children's charity that has raised over 5 million dollars.


Her first movie was "Dora" in ''Jory'' in 1972. At age 18, she played the daughter of Joan Crawford in 1972 television series ''The Sixth Sense''. It was Joan's last acting appearance. A popular rumor is that Anne turned down the role of "Laurie Strode" in John Carpenter's 1978 thriller ''Halloween'', which was later cast for Jamie Lee Curtis. Mr. Carpenter says that he wanted her for the role, but that she turned it down. Anne does not remember being being contacted by John Carpenter, nor being offered the role. It is possible that one of her agents turned it down on her behalf without telling her.
She currently lives in Southern California. Most of her time is now spent with family, doing voice work, and raising money for her children's charity though rodeos and convention appearances. She appears regularly with the Kingsmen Shakespeare Festival in Thousand Oaks, California, which she helped found in the 1990's as well as with the Santa Susana Repertore Theatre Company. She has said that she loves live acting, and really enjoys doing Shakespeare. Some of her favourite roles were "Mrs. Cratchit" in ''A Christmas Carol'', "Calpurnia" in ''[[w:Julius Caesar (play)|Julius Caesar]]'', "the Nurse" in ''[[w:Romeo and Juliet|Romeo and Juliet]]'', "Mistress Quickly" in ''The Merry Wives of Windsor'', and "Queen Margaret" in ''King Richard III''.


== Early career ==


She was initially chosen by Glen Larson, who sent her a very preliminary script, for a role in the 1978 television series ''Battlestar Galactica''. She rejected the role initially, as the character wasn't that strong. Later, Glen wrote a new part just for her, with a much stronger character named "Sheba". After reading the first 25 pages of the script "The Living Legend", she accepted immediately. The show ran for one season.
