Barbara Anderson (born 27 November 1945; age 62) appeared in TOS: "The Conscience of the King" as Lenore Karidian.
She is best known to Ironside fans as the blonde cop, Eve Whitfield. She also played Mimi Davis in seven episodes of Mission: Impossible in 1972. One episode, entitled "Cocaine", reunited her with her Trek co-star William Shatner. That episode also featured Charles Napier.
She worked steadily in made-for-TV movies, TV series, and TV guest roles through the late sixties and into the seventies, but her acting career was essentially over by 1978. She returned only a few times after that, the last time in "ER" in an episode entitled, "Under the Influence" in 2007.
When she wasn't acting in the '80s and '90s, she worked frequently as a costume designer for a number of B-movies. While attending college, Anderson was voted Miss Memphis and came within a half a vote of being Miss Tennessee in the Miss America pageant before moving to Hollywood. In her first season on "Ironside" as officer "Eve Whitfield", Anderson won the "Emmy" Award for Best Supporting Actress in a TV Series.
