Louise Robey

The following year, she beat out 300-plus other actresses for the role of Michelle "Micki" Foster, niece of antiques dealer Lewis Vendredi, on the syndicated science-fiction series Friday the 13th: The Series, which Frank Mancuso Jr.. produced.

Foster is a young woman who inherits an antique shop from Lewis Vendredi (R. G. Armstrong), her estranged uncle.

When the antiques in the shop prove to have been cursed by the devil, Foster, Ryan Dallion (John D. LeMay), her cousin by marriage, and family friend Jack Marshak (Chris Wiggins) begin to hunt down and recover the antiques before they can kill or cause the damnations of the souls of anyone else.

The show, which was filmed in Toronto, was a hit with audiences and became one of the top-three syndicated dramas airing at the time, second only to Star Trek.

She was nominated for best actress by the Saturns.

The sophisticated glamour and feisty charm Robey imparted to the character earned the show a cult following.

She later recalled convincing the producers to give Foster her fashion-forward and striking look.

She quit L.A. for good to return to Europe after auditioning for and being accepted to Oxford University to study Shakespearean Theatre under Sir Derek Jacobi, whence she graduated with honors.
