Captioned: "Dody Goodman." Goodman (1915-2008, born Dolores
Goodman in Columbus, Ohio) was an American actress of the stage, TV and silver
screen known for her persona as a ditzy, malapropism-dropping redhead.
Goodman got her start in theatre. She made her Broadway debut in Viva
O'Brien (1941) and went on to good reviews in Wonderful Town
(1953-1954, 559 performances). Talk show host Jack Paar took a shine to her
and, in 1957, made her a semi-regular on The Tonight Show. Paar
dropped her by 1961, reportedly because she kept upstaging him, but she managed
to keep her career going on Broadway, where she had a total of 13 performances,
and on talk and game shows. Goodman's career enjoyed a renaissance in the 1970s
with roles as Martha Shumway on Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman (1976)
and as Blanche in the film adaptation of Grease (1978). She
was a frequent guest star on TV after that, with recurring roles on Diff'rent
Strokes (1981-1984) and voice work on the TV cartoon Alvin and the
Chipmunks (1983-1988). Lightly bowed and rippled, otherwise in fine
condition.
