@Bright Eyes  I'll aim for tomorrow night with the new ones. @jam6242 helped me hunt down photos for a bunch of radio actors for tonight. I'm making homemade stuffed shells for my niece's birthday- so my day is full tomorrow. They'll be up tomorrow night.

Edited August 13, 2022 by slick jones

[Paul Raven]

Slick, I believe that the radio roles for Edie Adams are a different actress than the one you have listed.

Edie was born in 1927 which would make her way too young to the mother in 'Those Happy Gilmans' for example.

That Edith Adams had a role in

Girl Alone Mrs Bates 1936

[slick jones]

I'll take the radio roles off for now and just leave Edie's tv and movies. I haven't found anything else on that Edith so far, so I'll put her up after hunting around for a picture/etc.  Sometime tomorrow.
