Okay, I retired a while ago, so a lot of this will be old news to you young folks. I did this, that, and the other thing in a number of movies, like Overboard, Teen Wolf, Naked Gun – any of these ring a bell? How about TV stuff, like Laverne & Shirley, Designing Women, Days of Our Lives? No? Well, I did make some decent money doing commercials, but who remembers commercials, eh? My early work was in improv comedy at the Brave New Workshop and Funny You Should Ask. Good heavens, I see that I improvised for nineteen years! Anyway, it got me a two year gig on NPR and a record album (not a DVD – I'm talkin' vinyl here). Improv was great training for the background voices that I did for most of my acting career. Over the years, I did hundreds of movies and TV shows, but I'm not gonna list them because, hey, I was hired as a background voice and don't want to distract from the stars. It was a delightful way to make a living and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Oh! And I want to thank all the rescue dogs whose vet bills forced me to keep working all those years. IMDb.com
