The Resume

    (September 28, 1919-June 26, 2012)
    Born in New York City, New York
    Portrayed Caroline Appleby on ‘I Love Lucy’
    Acted on the TV series 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents,' 'Blondie,' 'Perry Mason,' 'Hazel,' 'Gunsmoke,' 'The Twilight Zone,' 'My Three Sons,' 'The Dick Van Dyke Show,' 'The Fugitive,' 'Family Affair' and 'All in the Family'

Why she might be annoying:

    She is best remembered as Lucille Ball's nosy and near sighted friend on 'I Love Lucy.'
    Her character as the secretary of Lucy's boss from 'Here's Lucy' was dropped because the producers wanted to showcase Lucy's family life more than her work life.
    Her character started as Lillian Appleby, but for unexplained reasons, her name was changed to Caroline in future episodes.
    She acted pretty much only on television shows.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She was married to the same man for 61 years until his death.
    She had a large following, being the last surviving adult cast member of 'I Love Lucy.'
