Patti D'Arbanville
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Patti D'Arbanville (born May 25, 1951 in New York City) is an American actress.
Her first movie appearance was in a New York University student film "Tuesday And Blue Silk" in 1960, then in the 1968 Andy Warhol film Flesh. Since then, she has worked steadily as a supporting actress in dozens of films and television series in the United States and France.
D'Arbanville has been married (and divorced) three times – to French actor Roger Mirmont, Steve Curry, and New York City Firefighter Terry Quinn with whom she has three children, Emmelyn, Alexandra, and Liam. She also had well-publicized relationships with singer Cat Stevens and actor Don Johnson with whom she has a son, Jesse Wayne Johnson (born on December 7, 1982). She currently resides in New York, with Mr. Quinn and their three children.

[edit] Trivia
Unsurprisingly, D'Arbanville inspired the Cat Stevens songs Lady D'Arbanville and Wild World from his 1970 album Mona Bone Jakon and Tea for the Tillerman respectively.
In a 1997 episode of New York Undercover, her character's son (after being admonished about getting too caught up in the hip-hop music and lifestyle) says "oh, so maybe I should listen to people like... Cat Stevens" which may or may not have been a subliminal nod to D'Arbanville's past relationship with Stevens.
