Best known for her role as Nurse Holmby on the TV show Medical Center, Baldavin is the former wife of Star Trek casting director Joseph D'Agosta and later became a casting director herself. She appeared in four episodes of Star Trek: The Original Series.

When Baldavin was called back for a subsequent appearance in "Shore Leave", her character in the script was called "Mary Teller," but crew on the set realized she had played a major character named Angela, so she was called that in dialogue. However, Shatner still calls her "Teller" at one point. Later, she played the Communications Officer in "Turnabout Intruder".

Baldavin filmed her scenes for "Balance of Terror" on Monday 25 July 1966 at Desilu Stage 9.
