This Week in Television History: August 2013 PART II

Listen to me on TV CONFIDENTIAL:


As always, the further we go back in Hollywood history, the more that fact and legend become intertwined. It's hard to say where the truth really lies.


August 15, 1923

Rose Marie, actress and comedian who also had a successful singing career as Baby Rose Marie was born. 



A veteran of vaudeville, Rose Marie's career includes film, theater and television. Her most famous acting role came as television comedy writer Sally Rogers on CBS's classic sitcom The Dick Van Dyke Show. She later portrayed Myrna Gibbons on CBS's classic sitcom The Doris Day Show and she was also a frequent panelist on the game show Hollywood Squares.



To quote the Bicentennial Minute, "And that's the way it was".
