Lenore Kasdorf (born July 23, 1948) is an American actress.

[edit] Biography

Kasdorf was born in New York City to an army colonel father.[1] She is best known for her role as the alluring and promiscuous nurse Rita Stapleton Bauer, whom she played from 1975 to 1981 in the soap opera Guiding Light, and for her performance as Mrs Rico in Starship Troopers.

She has since appeared on the soaps Santa Barbara and Days of our Lives, as well as a number of films (her most prominent film role costarring with Chuck Norris in 1984's Missing in Action). She also had a recurring role on the 1980s sitcom Coach. Her television credits also include guest-starring roles on The A-Team, Knight Rider, Murder She Wrote, Barnaby Jones, 21 Jump Street, NYPD Blue, Beverly Hills, 90210, Magnum P.I, and the science fiction drama Babylon 5.

In 2004, Kasdorf suffered paralysis, as result of an opportunistic infection which manifested in her spine. Though she eventually overcame both the infection and her paralysis, she has not been active as an actress since that time.

Kasdorf was married to actor Phil Peters from 1977 - 1983.

She has a daughter, Vanessa Peters, born in 1980.
