Born in England, Angela is the younger sister of actress Veronica Cartwright. As a
child she was cast as the cute little stepdaughter, Linda Williams, on
Make Room for Daddy (1953). She was on the show from 1957 to 1964. After that, she was
cast as Brigitta in the popular Julie Andrews movie Meine Lieder, meine Träume (1965). Soon after, she
returned to series TV as Penny Robinson, young teenage space traveler,
in Verschollen zwischen fremden Welten (1965), which ran from 1965-1968. Even with cheap special effects
and a hokey story line, the show is still popular today. In 1970 Angela
had a part in Make Room for Granddaddy (1970), a sequel to The Danny Thomas Show, but the show
was soon canceled. Since that time, she has made a life outside of
films.
