Absoluktely right, Gertrude Berg starred in the Goldbergs and Peggy Wood
starred in
"I remember Mama", which evokes another memory. Remember her doing the
coffee commercials during the show and then for years after the show ended
(Was it Folgers?) and to keep this on topic, believe Peggy Wood recorded
some 78s, but I don't have any. Last I remember seeing her was in her
wonderful role as the Mother Superior in Sound of Music.
when she sang "How do you solve a problem like diah--er- I mean Maria".
