She appeared in Prime Cut (1972) with co-stars Gene Hackman and Lee Marvin and newcomer Sissy Spacek as a co-star. She also appeared with Charles Bronson in Murphy's Law (1986). Tompkins was featured in the pictorial "Angel" in the February 1972 edition of Playboy Magazine; subsequently the magazine used her in three more editions, all presumably related to that film promotion.
