She was one of the most popular members of the "Broadway Open House" TV show 
starring Jerry Lester. It was the very first late night TV variety/comedy 
program and Dagmar played the prototypical dumb blond although she was far 
from being one.  She was a towering presence and outstanding from all 
angles. I remember her forward contributions to that pioneer program with 
fondness.
