The Women of "DALLAS"

VICTORIA PRINCIPAL played Pamela Barnes Ewing

Although “Dallas” featured numerous characters, Pamela remained a central player during Victoria's time on the show. “Dallas” was a phenomenal ratings success. The show was either No. 1 or No. 2 for five straight seasons (1980-84), and the “Who Shot JR?” episode in 1980 was the highest rated television episode in history at the time – it's now No. 3 – and was watched by 83 million Americans.  In 1989 she created the now-famous Principal Secret, a line of skin care products that has amassed more than $1 billion in sales. Victoria has also written four books about beauty and health.
