More often, though, Walter was found on the small screen where she appeared in numerous short-lived series, won an Emmy as policewoman "Amy Prentiss" (NBC, 1974-75), and seemed to be more calculating than her male villainous partners in a multitude of guest appearances on series ranging from "Barnaby Jones" to "The Streets of San Francisco".
Walter subsequently was the social hostess and a presidential aspirant's wife with the campy name of Kay Mart in "Tapeheads" (1988).
Walter first performed in miniseries with "Arthur Hailey's 'Wheels'" (NBC, 1978), was memorable as Maggie McGregor in "Scruples" (ABC, 1981) and has long been one of the most active guest stars on TV episodics.
Jessica Walter Profile (297 words)
TCM's guest programmer for October is Jessica Walter, who won an Emmy nod for her role as the hilariously "withholding" mother Lucille Bluth on the Emmy-winning Fox TV sitcom Arrested Development.
Walter already has an Emmy of her own, having won as Outstanding Lead Actress for Amy Prentiss in 1975 after a nomination for The Streets of San Francisco in 1972, she was nominated again for Trapper John, M.D. in 1979.
Walter's choices of films to present on-air with TCM host Robert Osborne represent dramatic highlights from three decades: Citizen Kane (1941), On the Waterfront (1954), I Never Sang for My Father (1970) and The Way We Were (1973).
