Oh yeah, Tele. That may have been Tony Perkins in mama's dress in the PSYCHO films, but that was Virginia doing the talking. |

She was one of the leading ladies of West Coast radio, along with Jeanette Nolan and Lurene Tuttle (Bea Benaderet was almost exclusively in comedy). VG did a number of Dragnets, courtesy of fellow radio grad Jack Webb. Never seen her looking this young. I thought she was born 50 years old. |

Sometimes things just happen, following a thread or stumbling over something interesting, so knowing about her and finding pics was actually purely incidential. |

She was the prototypical lady witness VG: "He kept mostly to himself, never caused no problems, always paid his rent on time, I hate people who are late with their rent, makes me have to take a special trip to the bank and--" JOE FRIDAY: "Please ma'am, just the facts." |

Virginia Gregg and Jeanette Nolan rocked on OTR Oddly, both were attractive women. I was amazed, as a fan of the old Thriller TV series, when I saw Miss Nolan playing something other than a witch earlier in her career. She was a handsome woman. I saw her on a Hitchcock half-hour the other night and she looked good in that, even in rumpled clothes, living in a hovel.
As to Miss Gregg, Jack Webb seemed to love to cast her a b!tches on the second Dragnet series, in which she was often cast as a pushy nouveau suburban type women with no class wearing big glasses. It seemed that she preferred not to play for sympathy; and when she played bad characters they were downright mean, not evil by mistake but by choice. She too appeared on Thriller, with a black wig, and surprisingly rather attractive looking on account of it, in the Mr. George episode.
