B. Karen Lamm[1] (née Perk; June 21, 1952 – June 29, 2001) was an American character actress known for her roles in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974), The Unseen (1980) and Trackdown (1976).

She was married to musicians Dennis Wilson and Robert Lamm.[1]

Life and career

[edit]

Lamm was born in Indianapolis, Indiana.[citation needed] Lamm co-wrote the Beach Boys’ song "Baby Blue" for the L.A. (Light Album) release and was featured as backup vocalist and songwriter on Dennis Wilson's solo album Pacific Ocean Blue. Wilson drowned in 1983 in Marina del Rey, Calif., and Lamm subsequently contributed to many of his biographies, including the ABC miniseries The Beach Boys Story.

As an actress, Lamm was featured in more than 150 national commercials, TV movies, miniseries, series and films. She appeared in late 1974 in the Columbo episode By Dawn's Early Light and six months after that she co-starred in the Starsky & Hutch pilot-episode.[1]

Lamm appeared as a model on the cover of David Blue's 1975 album Com'n Back for More.

She helped produce miniseries Menendez: A Killing in Beverly Hills and UPN series The Watcher.

Lamm died in June 2001 in Playa del Rey, California, from heart failure.[1]
