She was seen on The Jimmy Durante Show, The Danny Thomas Show, The Red Skelton Hour, Getting Together, Laverne & Shirley, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, E.R. and more.

In 1957, she won a Best Supporting Actress Emmy for her performance of various characters in Caesar’s Hour. She was nominated (but didn’t win) the following year, as well.
