People will recognize her from the show, but she had a really good post-actress career , including directing Big and A League of their Own. :salute:

She was a legend. BIG, A League of Their Own, Renaissance Man, Riding in Cars with Boys. She even did one of the early Whoopie flicks, but I can't remember which one - Fatal Beauty or Jumpin Jack Flash.

Let alone her Laverne & Shirley work, Happy Days spinoff.

Meant to bug her up yesterday. Damn legend. League of their own is one of my fav sports movies ever, BIG was such a staple for me as a kid and still is, renaissance man is awesome and she’s been influential in comedy. Whole bunch of win for her. She’ll be missed
