Morgan completed an ABC-TV Special, “Teenage Confidential” that aired in December 1996 and starred in the NBC Movie-of-the Week, “Into the Arms of Danger” which was shot on location in Vancouver and aired during the 1996 February sweeps.

A native of Dallas, Morgan began acting as a child, when her mother enrolled her in drama lessons after she was too shy to give a book report in class. From the age of 10, she performed in children’s and dinner theatre and stock productions in Dallas. This vigorous preparation readied her for the key role of the paranoid murderess, Jennifer Pace Phillips, in the CBS-TV daytime series, “Search for Tomorrow”, a part which Morgan landed six weeks after moving to New York which was the beginning of her television career. Following her stint on “Search for Tomorrow”, Morgan moved to Los Angeles, where she made numerous guest appearances on TV series.
