I remember what a big deal it was for Gossett to win Best Supporting Actor that year. The first black actor to win one.

They mentioned her starring in Peyton Place and All My Children and one monster movie! She appeared in so much else! A leading lady in many 50s films. Beautiful lady even in old age. What longevity!
I see nothing in the HR obit about All My Children. Did they confuse it with Flamingo Road? Also, she appeared in an episode of MURDER, SHE WROTE! looking beautiful as a fashion designer (and murder suspect) in Paris. I'd forgotten she had been married to Jeffrey Hunter.
Yes. I discovered this after doing a search. Odd HR didnt mention it.Marysara1 wrote: ↑April 2nd, 2024, 4:00 pmhttps://www.tvinsider.com/1129682/barba ... -children/ She was in 38 eps in the 90's of All My ChildrenHibi wrote: ↑April 2nd, 2024, 8:45 am Saw a mention on ABC news last night about Barbara Rush.

She played Grandma Ruth on 7TH HEAVEN, a WB show I liked in the 1990s.KayFrancis wrote: ↑April 2nd, 2024, 5:06 pm Barbara Rush was such a pretty woman. Always enjoyed her performances. The Young Philadelphians was my favorite of her films. She did a couple of episodes of the original Magnum PI.
She played Tom Selleck's aunt who had Alzheimers, she waa
excellent in this episode.
So sad that so few of our favorite actors from the 50's and '60's are still here. Hope TCM will show some of her films as a tribute.
RIP
Lovely Barbara Rush
Yes, I remember when Barbara Rush and Peter Graves played Eric's parents. Use to watch 7th Heaven with my kids. It was always enjoyable when Barbara and other favorites would show up on tv shows.HoldenIsHere wrote: ↑April 2nd, 2024, 6:14 pmShe played Grandma Ruth on 7TH HEAVEN, a WB show I liked in the 1990s.KayFrancis wrote: ↑April 2nd, 2024, 5:06 pm Barbara Rush was such a pretty woman.

Her character was married to "The Colonel" (played by Peter Graves).
Both roles were recurring.
