| Ruick, who among other credits played Carrie Pipperidge in the film of "Carousel", was one of the stepsisters in the 1965 Lesley Ann Warren R&H "Cinderella" version and is lovely on the studio recording of the Gershwin's "Oh, Kay!" was also previously married to Robert Horton ("110 in the Shade", 'Wagon Train"). She died quite young unfortunately, while married to Williams, but had been a very charming singer and actress. She also appeared in the "Affairs of Dobie Gillis" with Debbie Reynolds, Bob Fosse and Bobby Van. So John Williams has a bit of a connection to Fosse. |
