Cindy Williams will forever live in TV history as Shirley Feeney, the dreamer half of the brewery workers on the long-running hit ABC series "Laverne & Shirley" (1976-82), although she left the show over alleged disputes with executive producer Garry Marshall. Film buffs may prefer to remember the brown-haired, baby-cheeked actress as Ron Howard's girlfriend in George Lucas' classic "American Graffiti" (1973). Since the early 1980s, she has remained active in sitcoms and occasional feature film roles.
