peppermint -> RIP Patty Duke (3/29/2016 10:07:49 PM)
Wow...couldn't believe it when I read it today. She's gone. For me she will forever be a young teenager. I watched the Patty Duke show when I was a teeny bopper. Loved watching her place 2 opposite characters. Her performance in The Miracle Worker fascinated me. I had not realized she was also bi polar and was an advocate for the mentally ill.
