She is obviously the inspiration for Juliet Lewis' differently-abled character in "The Other Sister."

Is it possible? Could it actually be TV's Blair Brown?? (Days and Nights of Molly Dodd) Seems unlikely, yet that voice is dead-on, and the looks/age would match too. She also now does a lot of voiceover work, which would be a natural extension of this act: http://www.peacetalksonline.org/Blair.jpg

I think it is Charlotte McGinnis, a comic from the 70's who used to work with Paul Rubens. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0569353/

She was in a couple sub-B movies like "Reform School Girls" and one of those Billy Jack movies.
