It's NYPD Blue's Sylvia Sipowicz! Yes, the woman whose provocative scenes were a major part of this groundbreaking, iconic TV series.

But wait! Sharon has also been a constant presence on television since then, in shows like:

• Shameless
• How to Get Away with Murder
• The Ranch
• Me, Myself and I
• Queen Sugar
• Rizzoli & Isles
• Drop Dead Diva
• One Tree Hill
• Monk
• Desperate Housewives
• Ladies Man
• Fired Up
• and now! Dynasty. Yes, Dynasty. It's a new, updated version and you can see her on the October 26 episode on the CW.

You'll hear Sharon, who's also on the board of the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, reflect on:

• provocative TV
• landing her famous gigs
• moving from small-town to big-city life
• her husband, parents, in-laws and friends
• life, love and acting
• fax machines, ticker tape and "the breakdown"

Enjoy!
