Writeup: Florence Henderson is fairly amazing, basically
having crafted a long lasting career from her appearance on
one series, albeit a popular and well remembered show (that
show is The Brady Bunch for those of you who don't recognize
her name). Florence first got into showbusiness thanks to
her lovely singing voice. She trained at the American Academy
of Dramatic Arts in New York City and was given a scholarship
because of her voice. In 1958 she landed her first big break
with a role on The Tonight Show, playing herself in different
comedy bits from 1958-1962. She also appeared on Sing Along
in 1958, as well as appearing as a regular performer on The
Jack Paar Show from 58-62. In 1959 she even appeared as a
Today Girl on The Today Show. However, we all know her as
Carol Brady, and it wasn't until 1969 that she landed her
lifelong role. Outside of The Brady Bunch, which ran until
1974, she also appeared in the Brady shows The Brady Bunch
Hour (1977), The Brady Brides (1981), and The Bradys (1990).
None of the spinoff shows were very successful, they couldn't
manage to recapture the magic of the original, but the cast
got to work. She also appeared in a number of Brady TV movies,
plus other TV movies including Just a Regular Kid: An AIDS
Story (1987) and Fudge-A-Mania (1995). She often appears in
sketches lampooning The Brady Bunch, and is a reliable guest
star on network TV. |
