I only saw Peggy on Andy Griffith, but after looking at her career, she was definitely "a big fish in a big pond." A lot of good thoughts in that conversation with Andy. RIP

I met Peggy at Warner Bros Studios, in Burbank, CA, in 1960, when she was appearing in a "77 Sunset Strip." What a lovely, gracious lady "ingenue" at that time. Sure wish we could do it all over again . . .
Efram Zimbalist, Jr. and Roger Smith were just beginning their careers.

I found this with 15 minutes left in 2020. When I was growing up in the 80s, Days Of Our Lives was destination TV for me and my mom. Peggy's character Caroline Brady was in the middle of some the most iconic storylines in daytime history. I extend my most heartfelt appreciation to Peggy's family on her behalf for the warmth and depth she brought to Caroline. As well as my deepest condolences for her passing. She will never be forgotten by those of us who had the opportunity to invite her into...
