Jenny Sullivan is an American film and television actress. She has starred in some TV movies, and her best-known role is reporter Kristine Walsh in the 1983 miniseries V and its 1984 sequel V: The Final Battle.
Sullivan wrote the play J for J (Journals for John) which was prompted after she found a packet of unsent letters (in 1995) written by her father decades earlier to her mentally disabled older brother Johnny (thus, journals for Johnny).[4] The play premiered on October 20, 2001. John Ritter, who in real life had a disabled brother, played Johnny, Sullivan played herself, and Jeff Kober portrayed her father Barry.
Sullivan taught drama at the University of California at Santa Barbara.[2]
Personal lifeedit
Sullivan was married to guitarist/producer Jim Messina[2] during the heyday of the country rock duo Loggins and Messina. She is the former sister-in-law of songwriter Jimmy Webb, who was married to her half-sister (and former cover girl) Patricia.[citation needed]
