You know, I spend most of my life turning things down. There's a lot of crap out there.

I come from a small town in Maryland. I came to California in 1972 to begin Maude.

I'd never even been to Wrigley Field. I never even enjoyed baseball that much, but I loved being there, the crowd was lovely, and they all sang with me!

Many years ago, I was in a Broadway show and I had to wear a fox fur around my shoulders. One day my hand touched one of the fox's legs. It seemed to be in two pieces. Then it dawned on me.... her leg had probally been snapped in two by the steel trap that had caught it.

Making lasting gifts for animals in our estate plans is perhaps the single most important thing we can do to ensure animals have the strongest possible voice for their protection.

At least I'm not playing other people for a change. It's a very odd place to be... I feel I'm an actress who sings a bit.
