The only thing I did at RKO of any note was lose my Texas accent.

Television wasn't prestigious.

I get crushes on directors because they are so brilliant.

I acted three times with Fred MacMurray, three times with Martin and Lewis, four times with Rock Hudson. Three times with Glenn Ford.

Sinatra asked me out.

I was the first movie star to plunge into night-time soap opera.

Everybody said Peyton Place would be a mistake.
