Condolences to the NOK.

I was still in school so she wasn't a huge impactor from my POV (and because i cannot recall any other entertainment item she was in, she probably was another Hollywood one-hit wonder...)

I wouldn’t say one hit wonder since she was in a few very iconic movies for the time.

As the title of the page lists her two biggest films as Flasdance and Fame. Even if you didn’t like the movies, they were so iconic that images of Flashdance or the song from Fame were and still are everywhere
