"The California-born actress, who also starred in the “Happy Days” spinoff “Joanie Loves Chachi,” had fallen on hard times in recent years. She was reportedly kicked out of her trailer park home in Indiana because of her hard-partying ways."

Sorry for her but this gets to something I wonder about. As a child and young adult, she had to make quite a bit of money. She wound up in a trailer park in Corydon, Indiana. Happy Days reruns apparently do not pay royalties to the actors. Is that common? The former stars sued a few years ago.

As a young person, I assumed everyone on TV was set for life. That was a bad assumption.

So sad that she ended up in such a poor place. Going from Hollywood where she probably had a very nice house, to ending up in the worst kind of home that you could imagine. Just a step above homelessness ... Indiana.

At least she will live forever on film, flashing her rack in Galaxy of Terror. One of the worst Si-Fi movies of the 80's.
