Tawny was best known as the sultry red-haired actress who appeared in rock music videos during the heyday of MTV. She became the rock world's "video vixen" after appearing on the cover of two albums from the heavy metal band Ratt and starring in several music videos for Whitesnake, including the 1987 smash song "Here I Go Again." The video, played repeatedly on the burgeoning music television network, featured Tawny performing cartwheels on the hood of a Jaguar.
She also starred as the fiancee to Tom Hanks' character in the 1984 comedy "Bachelor Party" and as Jerry Seinfeld's girlfriend in a 1991 episode of "Seinfeld."

Other TV credits included a stint as co-host of "America's Funniest People" and she appeared on the reality shows "The Surreal Life" and "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew," in which she revealed her struggle with substance abuse.
Just a few weeks after Kitaen's death, her younger brother Jordan Kitaen spoke to Fox News about their tight bond and opened up about one of their last discussions before her passing. He explained the actress, known to him by her birth name Julie, had been reeling from the loss of their father, who died in April.
Jordan shared with Fox News how he encouraged Tawny to get closer to her faith prior to her passing.

"To me, my faith is central to who I am. I've always felt that that's what's always gotten me through difficult times. I've always felt like that would be a huge help in Julie's life to have a more robust spiritual connection," Jordan said at the time.
The star had a tumultuous personal life. She married Whitesnake singer David Coverdale in 1989, but the pair divorced two years later. She later married MLB pitcher Chuck Finley in 1997, with whom she had two daughters. The marriage was rocky and it ended in 2002.
