Facts
Paula was born in Amarillo Texas, at the age of five she moved to Tulsa Oklahoma. Here she was raised and spent all her school years. At the age of 18 Paula new she was going to leave Tulsa to pursue her dream in show biz. During her senior year she started doing local commercials, were she was discovered by a modeling coach. She did some local modeling, but decided it was not what she wanted, she needed something a bit more of a challenge. Paula earned the title of Miss Tulsa Teen, Miss Oklahoma Teen and was second to Halle Berry in the Miss USA Teen pageant. After all the excitement Paula moved to Dallas where she studied acting and honed her skills doing commercials.
At the age of 20 she moved to Los Angeles to pursue her career in acting. Upon arriving, she found herself waiting tables for 8 years while waiting for that one break she needed. During this time Paula told me she changed agents about a hundred times and went on a kabillion auditions. Paula said "it takes years to become an overnight success." She soon landed her first acting role in one of a series of notable "Don't Drink & Drive" Public Service Announcements, appearing with Aretha Franklin.
Pacific Blue represents Trickey's second starring role in a television series; her first being in NBC's "Tradewinds." She has also had recurring roles on "Beverly Hills 90210," "Renagade," and "High Tide." In addition, Paula has guest starred in such series USA's "Silk Stalkings";ABC's "Who's the Boss," "Step by Step," "Civil Wars," and "Home Free"; CBS's "Designing Women," "One West Waikiki," and "Raven"; HBO's "Session"; FOX's "Fortune Hunter" ;and Steven J. Cannell's "Marker" and "Cobra."
Her feature film work includes
a starring role in "A Kiss Goodnight" and co-starring
roles in Castle Rock Productions "Mr. Saturday Night,"
Concorde's "Black Scorpion," and Magnum Entertainment's
"Lovecrimes."
She also guestarred in two
episodes of Baywatch, where she played a young woman who was a
con-artist. She had a young daughter, called Joey (I think), who
spent some time with your all-american lifeguard family when the
mother (Paula) was arrested. It was a two-part episode called
"Silent Night, Baywatch Night", by the way. Later in
the season the kid (Joey) was back in the show for some episodes.
The idea then was that the mother had DIED !!!! Which then led to
Paula's lead role in Pacific Blue.
