She played Louise Brown in the 1990 film ''Ghost''. ==Career== Gail Boggs, the daughter of Willie Boggs, a tree surgeon, and Alice, a dietitian, described having always dreamed of being a Broadway star. Her professional acting break came in 1971 playing Silvia with a touring group in Australia in a pop-rock version of Shakespeare's play ''The Two Gentlemen of Verona''.〔 She signed with William Morris Agency and went on to act in several plays, including rock opera ''Mother Earth'', an off-Broadway revue, ''Jesus Christ Superstar'', and ''Candide''.〔 In a 1975 interview, she reported that a chance meeting with Todd Rundgren at an intersection in Manhattan led her to singing backup alongside her friend Darcy Miller and Laura Nyro on Felix Cavaliere's second album, ''Destiny'', before singing with Hall & Oates on ''War Babies'' as well as with Carly Simon on ''Spy'' and ''Come Upstairs''. During the mid-1970s, Boggs provided vocals and percussion as a member of "The Striders" alongside "The Original Flying Machine"-alum Joel "Bishop" O'Brien and Robbie Dupree. Boggs also sang as a vocalist in David Sancious's short-lived band "Tone". In 1984, Boggs starred in the one-woman cabaret nightclub act ''The Gail Boggs Show'' at "Upstairs at Greene Street". The show ran weekly for the next year and a half. Boggs was one of the first to hear a recording of Madonna's "Like a Virgin" and she pushed Grammy Award-winning writer and producer Nile Rodgers to release the song as the first single off Madonna's then-upcoming album. Images of Boggs are found in the Martha Swope archive at the New York Public Library.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Martha Swope Photographs ca. 1955 – 2002 and undated )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gail Boggs」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
