概要

 In Part Two of Tony Miros’ candid and entertaining conversation with two-time Emmy winner Bonnie Bartlett Daniels, the legendary actress pulls back the curtain on one of television’s most beloved dramas, “St. Elsewhere.” Bonnie reveals that she originally auditioned for the head nurse before producers invited her to play Ellen Craig opposite her real-life husband, William Daniels. What began as a small role quickly evolved into one of the show’s most memorable relationships — though many of their co-stars, and even viewers, had no idea the two actors were actually married.Bonnie also shares what it was like winning Emmy Awards on the same night as her husband, the challenges she faced fighting for proper billing on the series, and her honest reaction to the now-infamous “St. Elsewhere” finale. Along the way, she reflects warmly on a marriage that has lasted more than 70 years — built on friendship, humor, and a deep mutual respect.The conversation also explores some of Bonnie’s most memorable roles beyond “St. Elsewhere,” including her unforgettable turn as the icy Barbara Thorndyke on “The Golden Girls,” her work in the hit miniseries “V,” and why she nearly walked away from the film “Twins” before director Ivan Reitman rewrote her role. She also speaks candidly about standing her ground in a male-dominated industry and how much the business has changed over the decades.At 96, Bonnie Bartlett Daniels remains sharp, reflective, and wonderfully honest. From “Gunsmoke” to “Parks and Recreation” to “Better Call Saul,” she has witnessed nearly every era of modern television — and in this conversation, she shares the stories only someone who truly lived Hollywood history can tell.BONNIE BARTLETT DANIELSBonnie Bartlett Daniels is a two-time Emmy Award–winning actress whose career spans more than seven decades across television, film, and theater.
