She also works in the commercial voice-over field. • Illustration — Herschel Bernardi and Angel Tompkins in Arnie in 1970 On television, Tompkins appeared in the pilot for Search (1972). The pilot was originally titled Probe, but the title was changed to Search due to a PBS program already having that title. She also appeared in several of the early episodes of Search. She appeared in many guest spots on shows such as The Wild Wild West (1968), Mannix (1967), Dragnet (1969 episode "Forgery: (DR-33)"), Bonanza (1970), Police Woman (1970), Kojak (1977), The Eddie Capra Mysteries (1978), Three's Company (1978), Knight Rider (1983), and Simon & Simon (1981). Tompkins additionally appeared in the episode "Gallery of Fear" on the Canadian sci-fi program The Starlost. In 1991, Tompkins was elected the national recording secretary of the Screen Actors Guild (SAG). She ran unsuccessfully for president of the guild in 1995. In 1996, she received the most votes for the SAG Hollywood Board of Directors. She ran for president again in 1999, changing her name to Angeltompkins so her name would appear first on the ballot, and came in third. In 2000, she proposed that members of SAG's partner union, American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, vote to decertify the union and recertify as part of SAG. She came in fourth in the 2001 SAG election, her fifth attempt.

She has been married to television and film writer/comedy rewriter, venture capitalist, Ted Lang since 1985. They have two children: Troy and Channing. Their homes are in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Fallbrook, California.
