You’ll hear Marion talk about:

  • Happy Days – and how the cast really was like a family

  • Trouble with Tom Bosley, however

  • Why most people in Hollywood are driven “A types”

  • Why her parents were devastated when she got married

  • Getting divorced at age 40

  • Why she became driven to be a successful actress as a child (she craved attention!)

  • Her big move to Hollywood

  • Not feeling quite up to snuff

  • Learning how to “play the game”

  • Rubbing elbows with:

    o   Tony Curtis

    o   Janet Leigh

    o    Cary Grant

  • Getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

  • Dinners with Henry Winkler, Ron Howard, Don Most, Anson Williams and Scott Baio

  • Her son, Jim Meskimen (and a fun factoid!)

  • Her daughter, Ellen Kramer (and a fun factoid!)

What you’ll hear Marion say:

“If you find somebody who’s really successful, there’s some one person there that is looking out for you all the time.”

“If you scratch down, you find out, who is helping this person?”

“You need somebody who is constantly pushing you, looking out for you.”

“The brownies and the fairies do not come and find you. You have to make it happen.”
