The famous Michael Learned is an American actress, known for her role as Olivia Walton in the long-running CBS drama series The Waltons. She has won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series four times, which is tied for the record of most wins with Tyne Daly.

Her first substantial role in either film or television was as Olivia Walton on The Waltons, which ran for nine seasons from 1972 to 1981. For the first five seasons of the show, she was billed as Miss Michael Learned because she was relatively unknown at the time and producers wished to avoid confusion among viewers about her gender. By the sixth season, as the show continued its success after the departure of co-star Richard Thomas, producers’ fear of confusion about her sex had been alleviated and the Miss, was removed from Learned’s billing. She was nominated for six Emmy Awards as Lead Actress in a Drama, winning three times.

After the end of the sixth season, she agreed to appear for one more season on the condition that she would not have to work the full nine months. After the seventh season, she left the show.
