GA Russell Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) Jayne Meadows has died at 95. RIP. I don't recall ever seeing any of her work. I just remember always seeing her on talk shows with Steve Allen (a favorite of mine). This obit tells more of her career than I ever knew. http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2015/04/27/legendary-actress-jayne-meadows-allen-dies/?intcmp=features Edited April 27, 2015 by GA Russell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Kart Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Met her once while interviewing Steve. She had a powerful classy presence, was obviously damn smart, and she and Steve seemed like a terrific couple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had a powerful classy presence, was obviously damn smart, and she and Steve seemed like a terrific couple. Steve Allen seemed like an intelligent guy, so it is easy to imagine that he would fall in love with an intelligent woman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Kart Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 "Louis?" I believe it was always spelled that way, never "Louie," even though it was pronounced "Loo-eee." But isn't that often the case -- see "Louis XIV." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
