Audrey Landers is a multi-talented individual with a wide range of skills and accomplishments. She began her education at Columbia University/Barnard College, where she majored in Psychology, and later studied music theory at the Juilliard School of Music.

However, she is best known for her iconic role as "Afton Cooper" in the television series "Dallas," where she played the sultry songstress and sang all the songs that she wrote. She reprised her role in the series revival on TNT and has also appeared in numerous other films and television shows.

As a singer, Audrey has had a successful music career, releasing her first hit record at the age of 14 on Epic Records. She has since become a multi-gold and platinum recording artist and songwriter, earning 10 gold singles, 4 gold albums, and 2 platinum albums. Many of her European hits have become Evergreens, including "Manuel Goodbye" and "Playa Blanca," which have been re-recorded by artists in many countries.

Audrey has also had a successful career as a composer, songwriter, and performer, headlining concerts in Europe, Las Vegas, and Atlantic City with notable artists such as Billy Crystal, Glen Campbell, Bob Hope, Rich Little, Tom Jones, and many more. She has also performed with the 64-piece Pops Orchestra, singing songs from The Great American Songbook.

Behind the scenes, Audrey has been involved in various projects as a writer, producer, and director. She and her business partner, her mother Ruth Landers, coproduced feature films released by MGM and Paramount, including "Ghost Writer," "Club Fed," "California Casanova," and "Circus Island," which Audrey also wrote and directed.
