Heather Thomas, Known as ‘Jody Banks’
Pictured here is actress Heather Thomas in her iconic role as Jody Banks on the hit 1980s series The Fall Guy, which aired from 1981 to 1986. The show followed the action-packed life of a Hollywood stuntman who moonlighted as a bounty hunter when stunt gigs ran dry.
The series became known for its celebrity cameos and nods to The Six Million Dollar Man, which starred Lee Majors—also the lead in The Fall Guy. Before her breakout as Jody Banks, Thomas began her career at just 14, hosting and interviewing stars on the NBC series Talking with a Giant.
