Did You Know?

Personal Quote:

[Who said in 1968 on her refusal to publicly discuss the political career of her ex-husband, Ronald Reagan]: It's not because I'm bitter or because I don't agree with him politically. I've always been a registered Republican. But it's bad taste to talk about ex-husbands and ex-wives, that's all. Also, I don't know a damn thing about politics. See more »

Trivia:

She had been battling health problems for years, so producers thought they rewrote the scripts in such a way that her character didn't do most of the walking on the Falcon Crest (1981) set. See more »

Trademark:

Her hairdo, bangs over her forehead. See more »

Nickname:

Button Nose See more »

Star Sign:

Capricorn
