  1. Charlotte Lawrence was a Los Angeles native who moved to New York in the 1940's to pursue a career in radio. She had a lucrative career as a radio actress, but left NY to return home to take care of her aging mother. In the 1950's she appeared in several I Love Lucy episodes and in the 1960's left acting and entered the corporate world. She worked at Capital Records, before landing a key position at Lorimar Productions as Manager, Music Clearance and Licensing. Throughout the 1970’s and 1980’s Charlotte oversaw the music clearance and licensing for Lorimar’s television shows (The Waltons, Dallas, Knots Landing, Falcon Crest), plus countless movies and mini-series, as well as their Feature Film division and Advertising Company Bozell, Jacobs, Kenyon and Eckart. In 1991 Charlotte left Lorimar to become Director of Music Licensing for Saban Entertainment.

    1. Do you know which character she played? I used to have my students listen to that version in my high school English classes before I retired.
