Swit trained at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, where she learned to sing — and, wow, what a voice! — and act for the stage. Her commitment to the craft helped her gain access to some of the most influential people in the business, even landing her some one-on-one coaching with Off-Broadway pioneer Gene Frankel in New York City.

I felt It was wrong for Alan Alda not to let her go on to Cagney and Lacey, The die had already been cast that 82-83 was to be the final season, and in my humble opinion she had earned the chance to be the lead in a show, I loved Sharon Gless though ( i guess that just proves right time right place........)
I'm not defending Alan, but it wasn't just him. Fox wouldn't let her go either. Funny, they let Wayne, McLean, Larry, and Gary leave the show, but not Loretta.
