We were doing the show this morning when Tim and I noticed a familiar-looking woman in the AM station's studio next to us. Could it be? Nah, we first thought. Then Tim and I Googled, and sure enough... Hollywood legend Paula Prentiss was in the building with her daughter Prentiss Benjamin. All of Paula's movies..."What's New Pussycat" with Peter Sellers, "The Stepford Wives", "Catch-22", "Where The Boys Are", "Move" with Elliot Gould.... and TV as well! I remember her on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and that '60s ABC sit-com "He Said, She Said" with her husband actor/drietor Richard Benjamin. Turns out she and her daughter Prentiss are in Lansing to do a stage presentation of George Bernard Shaw's "Mrs. Warren's Profession" and the Boar's Head Theater. I snagged her from the AM studio and got her over to MIKE-FM for an impromptu interview 'on-the-fly'. Listen to the interview below!
