Sheree J. Wilson Career
While working in Denver on a fashion shoot, one of the photographers mistook Sheree Wilson for a model and then introduced her to a New York modeling agent who signed her on the spot. She then moved to Manhattan, and within 18 months, Wilson had appeared in over 30 commercial campaigns for Clairol, Sea Breeze, Keri-Lotion, and Maybelline. Wilson’s print work ran in such popular magazines as Mademoiselle, Glamour and Redbook.

Wilson moved to Los Angeles for a career in acting after three years of modeling. Her first roles included the black comedy film Crimewave in 1984 directed by Sam Raimi, Velvet (1984), an ABC/Aaron Spelling television movie opposite Leah Ayres, Shari Belafonte and Mary Margaret Humes and a guest role on the espionage series Cover Up in 1984.
Wilson had a lead role with Tim Robbins in the comedy motion picture Fraternity Vacation in 1985 and also appeared in a CBS television miniseries Kane & Abel in 1985 with Peter Strauss. This immediately led to Our Family Honor from 1985 to 1986, an NBC drama about Irish cops versus the Mafia, in which she co-starred with Ray Liotta, Michael Madsen, and Eli Wallach. Wilson’s career continued to flourish with a role in the television movie News at Eleven in 1986 alongside Martin Sheen.
Wilson gained the role as April Stevens Ewing on the CBS soap opera Dallas from 1986 to 1991. In the 14th episode of the final season during her honeymoon (with new husband Bobby Ewing) in Paris Wilson’s character was gunned down. Later that season, Wilson continued to make some appearances in Bobby’s dream sequences. In reality, Wilson was killed off and left the series due to maternity.
Her performance in 1991 earned her the Soap Opera Digest Award for Best Death Scene, as well as four other nominations. She attended the TV Land Award ceremony in 2006, for Dallas and in November 2008, the Dallas 30th anniversary reunion party at Southfork Ranch in Parker, Texas, with cast members Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray, Ken Kercheval, Steve Kanalyand Charlene Tilton.
Following guest roles in 1993, in the television series Matlock (opposite Clarence Gilyard’s former acting mentor, Andy Griffith) and Renegade (opposite Lorenzo Lamas), Wilson played the lead female role in Hellbound opposite Chuck Norris, which led to her best-known role as Alexandra “Alex” Cahill-Walker also opposite Norris in Walker, Texas Ranger from 1993 to 2001.
She reprised her role in the television movie Walker in 2005, Texas Ranger: Trial by Fire which ended with her character being the victim of a courthouse shooting. This left many viewers to believe that there would be a follow-up movie which was severely impaired when CBS said that they would no longer be producing “Sunday Night Movie of the Week” projects. She also co-starred in the Showtime movie Past Tense in 1994.
Wilson appeared in Fragile in 2006, the first short film by documentary filmmaker Fredric Lean.
