"Actress Greta Blackburn carved out her career predominantly through minor roles in both film and television during the 1980s and 1990s. Her acting debut occurred in 1979, portraying Carmen in the TV series '240-Robert'. Over the subsequent two decades, she appeared in shows such as 'Alice', 'Just Our Luck', 'Three’s Company', 'The New Mike Hammer', 'T.J. Hooker', 'We Got It Made', 'Lois & Clark', 'Cybill', and the updated 'Dragnet', among others. Notably, she played Jennifer in several episodes of 'Dynasty' in 1986, and Lorraine in the 1984 miniseries 'V: The Final Battle'. Blackburn also made brief appearances in major films like 'The Concrete Jungle' (1982) and 'My Blue Heaven' (1990). However, she is perhaps best remembered for her role as Lisa in the Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte blockbuster '48 Hrs.' (1982), where she famously brushed her teeth while revealing her breasts, offering a lengthy view of her dark rosy nipples. Later in the film, Blackburn briefly displayed her buttocks during a scene involving bedsheets and a billowy white nightgown in 'Yellowbeard' (1983), though no explicit nudity was shown."
