Biography

Voluptuous, usually blonde, actress who began her career with decorative roles in such films as the Elvis Presley vehicle, "Clambake" (1967), and attracted some attention for her role as Agent Charlie, a male colleague of CONTROL agent Maxwell Smart (Don Adams), seen only in "female" drag, on TV's "Get Smart." During this period Pettyjohn also played the role for which she is best remembered, a silver lame bikini-clad "thrall" assigned to train Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner) for battle in the "Star Trek" episode "The Gamesters of Triskelion."

One of few performers to switch from mainstream films to porn, Pettyjohn made several hardcore flicks in the early 80s (billed as either "Angelique" or "Heaven St. John"), as well as the soft-core comedy about strippers, "Takin' It Off" (1984).
