From: Jimmy C We were discussing famous mothers and daughters the other day at work, some obvious names were Judy Garland and Lisa Minelli etc. One lady assured us that Susan Lucci (sic) was the daughter of Phylis Diller,, can anyone confirm this ?. I don't think so but this lady assured us that it is true.? |

07 Oct 05 - 11:24 PM (#1578541) Subject: RE: BS: Famous mothers and daughters. From: katlaughing She must be, it says she's played, as a soloist, with over 100 symphony orchestras! |

08 Oct 05 - 09:53 AM (#1578770) Subject: RE: BS: Famous mothers and daughters. From: Stilly River Sage Apparently her musicianship was well-hidden for a number of years. I heard her in an interview, I think with Dick Cavett, where she expanded on the subject. She was called by someone at a symphony orchestra who wanted her to appear in conjunction with a symphony performance. She was pleased and asked them what she would play, and they were surprised that she played piano because they had in mind a speaking performance. It evolved from that. SRS |

10 Oct 05 - 09:44 AM (#1580060) Subject: RE: BS: Famous mothers and daughters. From: Jim Dixon By the way, Phyllis Diller does (or did) have a daughter named Susan, who would be about the same age as Susan Lucci. I know because Sue Diller attended Southwest High School in St. Louis, c1961-65, the same time I did. I have no idea what happened to her since then. |

10 Oct 05 - 08:04 PM (#1580579) Subject: RE: BS: Famous mothers and daughters. From: Jimmy C Thanks all, I had my suspicions about the Lucci/ Diller connection. I know one of the leading ladies on Law and Order is the daughter of Jane Mansfield and Micket Hegarty (sic). She was intereviewed on Jay Leno not so long ago. Her first name is Marista or something similar, I am not a big TV fan. |

10 Oct 05 - 09:52 PM (#1580628) Subject: RE: BS: Famous mothers and daughters. From: JohnInKansas Jimmy C - I think it's Mariska Hartigay. (But don't quote me.) I have no idea why she's a "personality" except that her pose for the "Allure" skin care products add was quite fetching. (One of my kids brought it to my attention.) John |

10 Oct 05 - 11:07 PM (#1580680) Subject: RE: BS: Famous mothers and daughters. From: Stilly River Sage Yup. I think I heard her interviewed on Terry Gross's "Fresh Air" recently, or maybe it was "This American Life." Anyway, it was an interesting piece. IMDb link and a Google search. SRS |

11 Oct 05 - 12:27 AM (#1580724) Subject: RE: BS: Famous mothers and daughters. From: JohnInKansas This is the only thing I'd seen, and that only 'cause son showed it to me. Judging by the resume at IMDb I guess I just haven't been watching enough TV to recognize her - or maybe just not paying attention. A nice picture. A bit "risque" for US TV advertising, but may have been in some of the fashion mags. [Warning: tastefully nude - depending on your taste.] Mariska's Allure Ad John |
