Sad.
I was going to post it last week when I saw it on another board but wasn't sure if anyone would have known who she was.

Zina was very popular on the TV show THE NURSES. I guess that was in the 60's. She also appeared with the NYC Ballet.

Are you sure it wasn't The Hearses?
Tasteless, I know. Deal.

Dolly,
I just noticed we have the same anniversary date here on BroadwayWorld. We should celebrate this year.
But alas you are a Broadway Legend and I a mere Featured Actor. :)
