Career

Sagal began her career working the Hollywood circuit. She appeared in several television films between 1971 and 1975, including a small role as a receptionist in the Columbo film Candidate for Crime (directed by her father) and in 1973 working as a backing vocalist for various singers, including Bob Dylan, Gene Simmons and Tanya Tucker. During this time she was also a member of the rock group The Group With No Name. She also sang backup for Bette Midler, who hired her for her 1979 tour as one of The Harlettes. ...

Sagal returned to television in 1985 in the television series Mary starring Mary Tyler Moore. This led to her being cast as Peg Bundy on the American sitcom Married... with Children (1987–1997). She portrayed the lower-class, unhappy, sex-craving wife of shoe salesman Al Bundy. Originally her character was written with the appearance of a modern housewife, but it was Sagal's idea for her character to take on the 1960s image because she wanted to parody the 1960s housewife^{[citation needed]}. During her audition for the role, Sagal brought her own red bouffant wig and with the producers' approval, the look transitioned into the show. Peggy Bundy wore a large red bouffant wig, capris-length leggings with a large belt, and high slip-on heels, which were all fashion styles from the '60s. She would also often appear wearing off-the-shoulder tops, as seen on the picture above. Sagal's career focused almost entirely on this series for its ten-year run (although she also appeared in several television movies). Sagal briefly revisited her role of Peg in Married... with Children, when the sitcom was parodied in the Futurama episode "A Bicyclops Built For Two". Sagal also appeared as Helen in ABC's hit show Lost.

Personal life

Sagal was married to Freddie Beckmeier (1978–1981) and Jack White (November 26, 1993–July 24, 2000). In 1991, Sagal discovered she was pregnant. This was unexpected to the directors of Married... With Children. The pregnancy was written in to the storyline of the show. However, she ended up having an emergency caesarean section in her 7th month of pregnancy; the child, Ruby, was stillborn^{[citation needed]}. The pregnancy on the show then turned out to be a "dream" because it would have been too painful for an infant to be on set at the time. She had one other early miscarriage around this time as well. Katey eventually had two children with Jack White, Sarah Grace and Jackson James White. Sagal married Kurt Sutter (a writer, producer, and actor for The Shield) in a private ceremony on October 2, 2004 at their home in Los Feliz, California. They welcomed their first child together, daughter Esme Louise, on January 10, 2007. Esme was carried by a surrogate mother.
