Peggy Lipton, the actress and singer known for her roles in “The Mod Squad” and “Twin Peaks,” and the mother of Rashida Jones, has died at 72 of cancer.
Her daughters Rashida and Kidada Jones announced her death to the Los Angeles Times.
She had been diagnosed with colon cancer in 2004.
Lipton won a Golden Globe and was Emmy-nominated four times for her role as flower child Julie Barnes in “The Mod Squad,” in which she starred from 1968 to 1973.
She became a fashion icon for her hippie outfits on the show, which featured three hip undercover cops, “One black, one white, one blonde,” as the marketing campaign described.
The show was one of the first to feature a multiracial cast, and one of the first to depict the growing counter-culture movement.
Lipton married music producer Quincy Jones in 1974; they divorced in 1989.
After a long break to raise their two daughters, she returned to acting on David Lynch’s original “Twin Peaks” series, playing Norma Jennings, the owner of the Double R Diner.
