 She was not on the list.

Lar Park-Lincoln, the actress known for playing Linda Fairgate on Knot’s Landing, has died. She was 63.

The Dallas-based actress’ death was announced by her company Actors Audition Studios after she died on Tuesday. A cause of death was not immediately disclosed.

“It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Lar Park Lincoln, celebrated actress, founder of Actors Audition Studios, and America’s beloved Audition Coach, on April 22, 2025,” they wrote in the post. “Over her 45-year career, Lar left an unforgettable mark on Hollywood through her dynamic performances and dedication to mentoring aspiring actors.”

Born in Dallas, Park-Lincoln made her acting debut in the 1985 made-for-television movie Children of the Night, before playing Linda on Season 9 of Knot’s Landing in 1987 before returning for a larger arc from 1989 to 1991.

Her other TV roles include appearances on Freddy’s Nightmare, Murder She Wrote and Beverly Hills 90210.

In 1988, Park-Lincoln played final girl Tina Shepard in Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood. She also starred in such films as House II: The Second Story (1987), Fatal Charm (1990) and From the Dark (2009).

In addition to her acting coach work, Park-Lincoln authored Get Started, Not Scammed. She also earned the Bronze Halo Award for her contributions to entertainment.

She is survived by her daughter Piper, son Trevor, sister Karen, brother Michael, four grandchildren and her poodle Charlie. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to The SAG-AFTRA Foundation or The Entertainment Community Fund.
