Cooley High is one 70’s film that will forever be remembered as a straight up classic! Not only were the main characters, “Cochise” and “Preach,” the most memorable, but so were their many supporting cast mates, including ‘Brenda,’ ‘Preach’s’ girlfriend in the film.
Actress, Cynthia Felton (formerly Cynthia Davis) played her role well and ever since we’ve covered what she’s been up too lately, many within our ILOSM fam’ sent us messages asking if Cynthia has any kids. So for those of you curious about Cynthia’s offspring, here’s the answer: Yes, she does have a daughter, who is just as gorgeous as her mother during her 1975 Cooley High days.
Meet “Brenda’s” Daughter
Her name is Samantha and she’s the product of her mother, Cynthia, and her mother’s significant other, Frank “Red” Felton.
Although Cynthia went down in history as an actress who’s face was one of the most recognizable in the mid 70’s, her daughter chose a different route. Samantha has a job in the healthcare industry, as a patient care associate at a Michigan hospital.
Her other full time job is as a devoted mother to the one year old daughter she has with her boyfriend, Brian- a tattoo artist who owns a Michigan based tattoo parlor…
As we previously reported, Cynthia “Brenda” Felton couldn’t be more proud of her daughter and grandbaby and she wastes no time expressing that on Samantha’s and Brian’s social media pages.

Now pardon me while a take a break to go watch ‘Brenda’ do her thing in one of my all-time favorite movies ever…well, except for the ending when ‘Stone’ and ‘Robert’ killed ‘Cochise.’ I still get a lil’ misty eyed over that every time…don’t judge me fam.’ Peace.
