Personal Quote:

[Who said in 1985 about being a serious actress, rather than being a funny comedienne]: A good actress should be able to play comedy as well as drama. I was doing a lot of drama until I took the comedy role in the series 'Car 54, Where Are You?,' and I've been tagged as a comedian ever since. See more »

When she was a little girl, she acted with the Wauwatosa Children's Theatre and performed on the radio. See more »
