CHARLES FORSYTHE; VALERIE MAHAFFEY
Broadway stage manager Forsythe signs a $136.57 check to actress Mahaffey, who
endorses it.
Check signed: "Charles Forsythe", 6x2¾. New York, N. Y., 1976 September 3. Check #
923, drawn on his personal account at First National City Bank, payable to Valerie Mahaffey
for $136,57. Entirely filled out by Forsythe. Endorsed on verso: "Valerie Mahaffey".
CHARLES FORSYTHE was a Broadway stage manager, serving 9 plays between
1955 (A Roomful of Roses) to 1965 (Alfie!). He later produced the light spy caper, Mrs.
Polifax, Spy, starring Rosalind Russell in her last feature film (1971). VALERIE
MAHAFFEY (1953-2025) made her first of six Broadway appearances in Rex (1976), the
year she received this check from Mahaffey. Her most important film role to date was probably
that of Marcela in Seabiscuit (2003), but she is most famous for her TV roles. Nominated
for a Daytime Emmy for The Doctors (1980), she scored a prime time Emmy in 1992
for Northern Exposure, the only member of that cast to win an Emmy. On two series,
Wings and Desperate Housewives, she portrayed a friendly and apparently normal woman who
proves to be insane. Fine condition.
