She was a regular on The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo in 1979 and 1980. Her role as Anna Fredericks-DiMera on Days of Our Lives from 1982 to 1986 would win her a Daytime Emmy award at the 13th Daytime Emmy Awards for supporting actress in 1986. Hunley was Dana Waring Carrington on Dynasty from 1986 to 1988 and a regular on Aaron Spelling's short-lived Models, Inc..

On June 21, 2007, Hunley returned temporarily to Days of our Lives to reprise the role of Anna DiMera. She was seen less frequently as the year ended, but according to several soap magazines and websites, Anna will have a much more prominent role beginning in late January 2008.
