Carmen Dominicci

She graduated from Universidad Del Sagrado Corazon. Fairchild scored her biggest recognition in some time by starring in TV ads for the Old Navy clothing store for several years, essentially playing herself. Dominicci during her career as a reporter has won numerous awards, including a Emmy regional, a Paoli and a Ace (award). She cultivated an image through her glamour as well as her extremely professional and courteous personality (a contrast from the "divas" she tends to portray). Eventually, she got a job as a news reporter for a New York station, which she left in 2002 to join Univision's tv show Primer Impacto. Fairchild continues to appear regularly on television, and is active in raising awareness of AIDS related issues, and environmental protection. Fairchild is unique in the sense that she has never had a starring role in a successful film or television series. During the 1990s, Dominicci became active in the field of news reporting, and started appearing on tv news shows in Puerto Rico. Fairchild's personal life has been more low-key but she was married to Jack Calmes from 1967-1973 and dated US Senator and future Presidential candidate John Kerry in the early 90's.

During the 1980s also, she married the internationally recognized actor Osvaldo Rios, also of Puerto Rico. Together, they had a son, named Guiliano Rios Dominicci. In the early 80's she appeared in off-Broadway plays such as Geniuses and garnered rave reviews from Time and the New York Times. During this time also, she became a modeling instructor at Caguas' Polytechnical College, but she had to leave that job when her tv presence became more requested for by the public. Through the years she also maintained a career in independent films and theater productions. Later she began acting in Mini-Series (which is a term used for shorter, three or four chapter versions of telenovelas), which helped her become a household name and recognized figure in Puerto Rico. She also made a guest appearance in the American series Friends and was a recurring guest star on Cybill as Andrea, the rival of Cybill Shepherd's character. Dominicci, a native of Caguas, began appearing on tv commercials in Puerto Rico during the 1980s. In 1995, she returned to soaps as bitch Sydney Chase on The City, but only stayed for a year.

Carmen Dominicci is a famous Puerto Rican actress and fashion model turned into a television newswoman or journalist. She garnered an Emmy nomination for her role in a Murphy Brown episode and in the early 90's the Roseanne producers capitalized on her name value and cast her in a small role as bisexual Sandra Bernhard's girlfriend. By this time she was established as a leading television actress and appeared in the series Falcon Crest. In 1984 she headlined another series, Paper Dolls, where critics considered her the only bright spot, but poor ratings doomed the series. In the late 70's she had a stint on Mork & Mindy and subsequently had her first starring role in a prime time series, Flamingo Road, earning a nomination for an Emmy Award for her performance.

She moved to Los Angeles and was cast as Jenna Wade in the television series Dallas in 1978, appearing in one episode (the role was later played by Priscilla Presley). Moving to New York City, she secured her first on-screen role, appearing as maniacal Jennifer Pace in the daytime soap opera Search for Tomorrow from 1973 until 1977. She took her new first name, Morgan, from the 1966 David Warner film, Morgan: A Suitable Case for Treatment. Born Patsy Ann McClenny in Dallas, Texas, Fairchild's first job was as a stand in for Faye Dunaway during location filming for the movie Bonnie and Clyde (1967).
