Gina Wilhelm Actress – Happy Birthday, Carol Burnett!
Carol got her start as an assistant to ventriloquist Paul Winchell and his figure, Jerry Mahoney.
She made a name for herself singing “I Made a Fool of Myself over John Foster Dulles.”
She starred as Princess Winifred in “Once Upon a Mattress” and had a successful stint on “The Garry Moore Show.”
On the big screen, she played Miss Hannigan in 1982’s “Annie” and starred in “Noises Off” in 1992.
A fabulous singer and gifted comedienne, I am pleased to wish one of my most favorite funny women many happy returns of the day!
