Politics

I was raised in Hollywood. I grew up in the movies. But despite my liberal upbringing, when my theatrical career ended I became very involved with the Republican Party of the United States. I ran in a congressional election based on my platform that was in full support of the Vietnam War. I served as a U.S. delegate and Richard Nixon appointed me to the United Nations. I have been an ambassador to Ghana and Czechoslovakia and that was the best job that I have ever had! In 1976 I was the first female Chief of Protocol of the United States. While I have not been actively involved in politics for a few years, I still have great interest in all of the governments throughout the world. I strongly support the Republican Party and try to remain actively involved in my local politics in any way that I can. Between politics and theater, I have fulfilled my greatest goals.
