I was the properties master at a dinner theatre and she did a play there. She was very nice. While in town, she bought a MGB during the run of the show. I told her she should have bought a FIAT 124 Spider, like the one I drove. Can't go wrong with Italian.

Nancy Kulp was active in the Democratic Party and once ran for a local office.

Buddy Ebsen (Jed Clampett) was a right wing nut job and came in to campaign for her Republican opponent.
