Diane J. Findlay
RC (1966)
At the age of 23, Diane J. Findlay found herself having to make a decision . . . marriage or a career in the theatre.
Her wedding day was set . . . the gown -- a perfect fit, the wedding site to die for . . . but there was one problem: her fiance didn't want to share her with the world of show business! Now as life always does, a rather unexpected audition came up for the first replacement in chorus of the Broadway company of HELLO DOLLY, starring Carol Channing.

I remember that day as if it were yesterday . . . I didn't know what to do, so I had a little talk with God and it went this way . . . OK GOD . . . if I do not get the job, I'll get married and be barefoot and pregnant . . . but if I do get the job . . . WE'LL TALK.
I MOVED INTO THE REHEARSAL CLUB A WEEK LATER . . . and thus began my life as an actor . . . and the rest is history.
