Doris Singleton

Dorthea "Doris" Singleton (September 28, 1919 – June 26, 2012) was an American actress, perhaps best remembered as Lucy Ricardo's nemesis or frenemy, the snobbish Carolyn Appleby, in ''I Love Lucy''.
==Early life and career==
Singleton, born in New York City, trained as a classical ballerina, dancing for three seasons in the mid-1930s with the newly formed "Ballet Theatre", later to become the American Ballet Theatre. She began her career in show business as a vocalist in the late 1930s with Art Jarrett's orchestra. Her distinctive low, lyrical voice made her a favorite in the radio industry. Doris Singleton worked in New York during World War II both as a guest star and in regular roles on numerous hit radio shows, including ''The Alan Young Show''.〔Sies, Luther F. (2014). ''Encyclopedia of American Radio, 1920-1960, 2nd Edition, Volume 1''. McFarland & Company, Inc. ISBN 978-0-7864-5149-4. P. 16.〕
During a guest appearance on the radio show ''My Favorite Husband'' in 1948 she met Lucille Ball and began their long professional relationship. She had a recurring role in ''I Love Lucy'' playing Carolyn Appleby in ten episodes between 1953 and 1957. (The character was named "Lillian Appleby" in her first appearance but "Carolyn Appleby" thereafter.) In 1953, she made her television debut as Gloria Harper in the episode "Jungle Devil" on the series, ''The Adventures of Superman''. Coincidentally, Singleton's final appearance on ''I Love Lucy'' was in an episode with Superman George Reeves ("Lucy and Superman" episode #166). In 1956 and 1957, she appeared twice in the Jackie Cooper NBC sitcom, ''The People's Choice''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Doris Singleton )
In 1966, Singleton was teamed again with Ball on ''The Lucy Show'' in the episode, "Lucy and Art Linkletter", in which she plays Ruth Cosgrove, an actress whom Linkletter hires to help Lucy with a stunt on his television series. In an interview in ''The Lucy Book'' by Geoffrey Mark Fidelman (Renaissance Books, p. 233), Singleton revealed that she had originally been hired to be a regular on Ball's third series, ''Here's Lucy'', in 1968. Ball would have played a dumb secretary and Singleton the more intelligent one, but the premise was dropped when Ball decided to cast her own children in the show. She did, however, appear in the series premiere episode, "Mod, Mod Lucy".〔(IMDb profile )〕 On March 4, 1974, she appeared in episode 22 of season 6 entitled "Lucy Carter Meets Lucille Ball".
In 1970, Singleton was featured on an episode of ABC sitcom, ''Make Room For Granddaddy'' (an updated version of ''The Danny Thomas Show'') which had Lucille Ball as the guest star. In this installment, titled "Lucy Carter, Houseguest", Singleton played Grace Munson, another character from ''I Love Lucy''. Her final appearance on ''Here's Lucy'' was in 1974 as Lucille Ball's studio secretary in an episode titled "Lucy (Carter) Meets Lucille Ball". Singleton and Ball were reunited one last time, again as Ball's studio secretary, in the 1980 special ''Lucy Moves to NBC''.〔(IMDb profile )〕
Though Singleton would always be associated with her continued work with Lucille Ball, her interests lay in a much broader arena. Singleton guest starred on numerous other television shows including ''Richard Diamond, Private Detective'', ''The Dick Van Dyke Show'', ''Pete and Gladys'', ''Hazel'', ''The Twilight Zone'', ''The Munsters'', ''The Fugitive'', ''Dynasty'', ''Phyllis'', ''Family Affair'', ''Hogan's Heroes'', ''State Trooper'', and ''Frontier Doctor''. Singleton played the sympathetic neighbor, Susie, to Annie Fargé's scatterbrained character "Angel Smith" in the CBS sitcom, ''Angel'' from 1960 to 1961. Singleton also appeared in ''All in the Family'' as Edith's hotel roommate, Lydia Stonehurst, in the 1971 episode "Edith has Jury Duty". She also appeared in two ''Perry Mason'' episodes, titled "The Crooked Candle" and "The Purple Woman".〔(IMDb profile )〕
Singleton won critical acclaim for her dramatic roles produced for 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents".
Singleton guest-starred on ''My Three Sons'', playing two different characters who had recurring roles throughout the long run of the show. She originally played the mother of Meredith MacRae whose character Sally Morrison married original oldest son Mike Douglas (Tim Considine) in the 1964-65 season. Later she played Margaret, mother of Polly Williams (Ronne Troup) in the 1970-71 season. At the time of her death in June 2012, Singleton was the last surviving major recurring adult cast member from the "Lucy" shows. Her last major acting role was in ''Deadly Messages'' (1985), though she appeared in advertising and voice overs for many subsequent years, most notably in recurring ads for Hills Brothers' Coffee.
