Personal life


She was born in Santa Monica, California, to parents Harry and Constance (née Glazebrook) Norton.[citation needed] She began practicing Scientology at age 13, and became a minister in the Church.[1] She married Douglas Taylor in 1976 at the age of 18; the marriage ended in divorce in 1978. She then married former football player Lynn Hughes whom she later divorced.[2]

Still being viewed as a child actress in her early 20s, Norton posed nude for the August 1985 issue of Playboy in a bid to shed her wholesome "family" image. In 1991, Norton married Randy Apostle. They had one son, Devin, before divorcing in 2001.[3]

Norton is married to Robert Graves.[4] Norton has been writing, directing and starring in movies and theater. She also is a singer. An avid athlete, Norton has participated in competitive horse jumping and skydiving, in addition to skiing and tennis. Her CD Reflections was released in August 2016.[5]
