HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NANCY DUSSAULT

I'm a little late to the party but as long as there are a few hours left in the day......

I'd like to wish actress Nancy Dussault, perhaps best known in Toobworld as Muriel Rush (the wife of Ted Knight's character in 'Too Close For Comfort'), a very happy 80th birthday.

Her televersion was acknowledged in an episode of 'Car 54, Where Are You?' ("142 Tickets On The Aisle") when she was on Broadway playing Maria Von Trapp in "The Sound Of Music":

She appeared as herself as a co-host of 'Good Morning, America', but this theatre marquee carries more weight in considering her televersion.

She was also a regular on 'The New Dick Van Dyke Show' as Carol Davis and has appeared in 'Murder, She Wrote', 'Matlock', 'Barney Miller', 'Dream On' and 'The Love Boat'.  Her last role was in 'Alias' back in 2001.

All the best from this old Toobmaester, Ms. Dussault.  May you have many more birthdays to come....

BCnU!
