She primarily grew up in Chattanooga, Tennessee and was a straight-A student in her grade school years. O'Connell received a masters degree in drama from the University of Mississippi.

She played ill-fated nurse "Jane" in the seasonal slasher opus New Year's Evil (1980). Taaffe achieved her greatest enduring cult cinema popularity as "Dameia", a spaceship crew technical chief who gets gruesomely raped and killed by a giant slimy maggot in the marvelously warped sci-fi/horror winner Galaxy of Terror (1981). She went on to play wisecracking USO showgirl "Honey" in the trashy women-in-prison exploitation outing Caged Fury (1983) and insatiable German nymphomaniac "Brigitte Fritz" in the amusing lowbrow comedy romp Hot Chili (1985).
