This title was not due to my brilliance but rather because most of the plays I was in closed after a run of anywhere from one night to two weeks.  I would then move immediately into another."  She was a renowned interpreter of the works of Eugene O'Neill on the stage, and her career also encompassed film, early dramas on live television, and Joseph Papp's New York Shakespeare Festival.
