The striking blonde first shot to stardom playing the scheming femme fatale Linda Fairgate in Knots Landing in 1987.
A few years later, she landed another huge role in the iconic horror franchise Friday the 13th.
Lincoln faced off with the evil Jason Voorhees in the 1988 horror flick Friday The 13th Part VII: The New Blood where she played the role of a telekinetic woman.

Later on in her acting career, Lincoln became one of the faces on the home shopping channel QVC.
Her tragic passing was announced on Thursday by the Actors Audition Studios – a company she founded in her hometown Dallas.
The studio left a touching tribute which read: “Over her 45-year career, Lar left an unforgettable mark on Hollywood through her dynamic performances and dedication to mentoring aspiring actors.”
Her official cause of death is still unknown but Lincoln did suffer from breast cancer in the past five years.
