One of my earliest memories is of seeing Josephine the Plumber on those Comet cleanser commercials--at the time, she seemed to be the only woman on TV who wasn't a housewife, but actually had a job, and a non-traditional one. I remember making two big circles of stains in the sink, using dirt, so I could clean them with Comet just like Josephine. I guess I was the only three-year-old who enjoyed cleaning the sink.
She was great as the nasty, bullying girl in Bright Eyes, opposite Shirley Temple. She made lots of films as a child; I hope TCM will show some of them. She appeared in a TCM interview, along with other child stars--Dickie Moore, etc.--to talk about her experiences as a child star. Unlike some of the others, she seemed to have mostly happy memories of her experiences. I hope TCM will re-air that, too. R.I.P.
