Life and career
Susan Buckner was born in Seattle, Washington, on January 28, 1952. Prior to her acting career she was crowned Miss Washington in 1971 and in September went on to become a top ten finalist in the Miss America 1972 pageant (she tied for first in the swimsuit preliminary), which was eventually won by Miss Ohio Laurel Lea Schaefer. Nevertheless, her role in the Miss America pageant would be parlayed into a career in the entertainment industry. Her acting career is sprinkled with supporting roles in television, stage, and film.
Buckner portrayed high school cheerleader Patty Simcox in the 1978 summer blockbuster Grease, starring Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta. She was one of The Golddiggers, an all-female singing and dancing group featured on The Dean Martin Show. She made appearances on The Mac Davis Show and Sonny & Cher. She also appeared as one of The Krofftettes who performed synchronised swimming routines on The Brady Bunch Variety Hour.
Buckner's career in show business would end after she decided to instead focus more on raising her two children.
Personal life and death
From 1979 to 1997, Buckner was married to Michael R. Josephs, with whom she had two children.
Buckner died in Miami, Florida, on May 2, 2024, at the age of 72.
