Joanna Moore
Joanna Moore (born Dorothy Joanne Cook; ✦November 10, 1934 – †November 22, 1997) was an American film and television actress, who, between 1956 and 1976, appeared in 17 feature films and guest-starred in nearly a hundred television series episodes. After 1976, personal problems derailed her career, and she landed only two minor film roles.
From 1963 to 1967, she married actor Ryan O'Neal, with whom she had two children, Griffin O'Neal and Tatum O'Neal.
Moore's career peaked in the 1960s. During that time, she guest-starred in several popular shows, including Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Perry Mason, The Fugitive, Bewitched, and The Real McCoys. One of her recurring roles was as Sheriff Andy Taylor's love interest, Peggy "Peg" McMillan, in four episodes of The Andy Griffith Show, from 1962 to 1963. Moore was a guest star in television Westerns such as The Rifleman, Wagon Train (S1E2 & S7E25), Gunsmoke (title character twice; S5E21's "Coleen So Green" & S10E34's "Honey Pot"), The Rebel, The High Chaparral, The Wild Wild West, and The Virginian. By the 1970s, her career began to decline due to her drug and alcohol addictions. Moore made her final onscreen appearance in 1986 and died of lung cancer in 1997.
