Though most known for her TV work in the mid-1980s and early ‘90s, Jacobson also acted in films including “Not Just Another Affair,” “Forbidden Love,” “Splash,” “Cats Dancing on Jupiter,” “Last Look” and “Visage.”

"There was even a soap opera based around the women's football team, with fictional troubles - parents opposing them playing or forbidden love affairs and so on."

Mr. Vizcaíno said his father was a friend of the author’s family and carried letters back and forth between Mr. García Márquez’s parents when they were young and pursuing a forbidden love, a courtship that inspired “Love in the Time of Cholera.”
