I have a distinct memory of her crawling up on Johnny Carson's desk when she guested on The Tonight Show. But, it seems this never happened! I have access to all the old Tonight Shows, and I can't locate it.
Does anyone remember is there was some other talk show where that brilliantly talented star of The Magic Show and Nine crawled up onto the desk of a talk show?
I do not know about Anita Morris on Johnny Carson, but you may be thinking about Karla Tamburrelli who played the role of Carla in the national tour of Nine and appeared on the Johnny Carson show singing a special version of Call From the Vatican.
bowtie7 I could KISS you! This was driving me NUTS! Thank you! I had such a clear memory, and I went and watched all of Anita Morris' appearances with Carson, and she'd never done anything of the sort. Now I know I had the wrong person!
