Melinda
was born in Hope, Arkansas in 1939. Although best known for her
intense, sensitive dramatic portrayals, she first attracted attention
as an improvisational comedienne. She has appeared on stage,
appearing in the Broadway production of "Who's Afraid of
Virginia Woolf" in 1962. Her movie debut was in "The
April Fools" and she was nominated for an Oscar twice, the
first time in "1978 in "Close Encounters of the Third
Kind" and again in 1982 in "Absence of Malice".
She has many movies and TV appearances to her credit, but unfortunately,
for us at least, only one nude appearance, that being in "Slap
Shot". |
