Jaclyn Smith signs I ONCE KNEW A GUY NAMED CHARLIE at B&N The Grove

Join Barnes & Noble - The Grove at Farmers Market on September 12, 2026, at 11:00am as we welcome Charlie’s Angels star, miniseries queen, and businesswoman Jaclyn Smith to sign her heartfelt memoir, I Once Knew A Guy Named Charlie: A Memoir chronicling the making of a global phenomenon and her story beyond the screen.

When the pilot aired to instant success in 1976, Charlie’s Angels ushered in a TV revolution—for the first time, a network show featured three single female detectives whose stories revolved around fighting crime, not around supporting men. Jaclyn Smith, as Kelly Garrett (the only Angel to lead all five seasons of the show), was propelled into international fame and became an icon to girls and women everywhere. Now in I Once Knew A Guy Named Charlie: A Memoir, for the first time she shares the behind-the-scenes story of the origin and making of the iconic show, along with her longtime friendships with her co-stars including Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson, and Cheryl Ladd.
