Biography
Lisa Marie Eilbacher (born May 5, 1956) is an American retired actress. She is best known for her roles as Jenny Summers - Axel Foley's friend in Beverly Hills Cop and as Casey Seeger, the cadet who couldn't make it over the wall on the obstacle course in An Officer and a Gentleman (1982). She said the hardest part of playing that role was pretending she was out of shape, because she was an avid body builder.
She spent her most formative years in Paris then moved to Beverly Hills, California with her family, when she was seven. In true Hollywood fashion, she was spotted by a talent agent while out walking with her mother. It wasn't long before the little girl who spoke French began perfecting her English in television commercials and on such TV westerns as Wagon Train (1957), Gunsmoke (1955), Laredo (1965) and Bonanza (1959).
Among her credits as a teenager and after graduating from high school, she starred in The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries (1977), and, since those early days, has had prominent parts in countless series and television films including Deadly Intentions (1985), The Ordeal of Patty Hearst (1979), The War Between Men and Women (1972), a motion picture starring Jack Lemmon and Barbara Harris, Love for Rent (1979), To Race the Wind (1980) and This House Possessed (1981).
Her roles in miniseries include The Winds of War (1983) opposite Robert Mitchum and Monte Carlo (1986) with Malcolm McDowell. She auditioned for the role of Princess Leia in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977).
