MARY TYLER MOORE

SHE TURNED THE WORLD ON WITH HER SMILE,


Was the 1st tartlet news girl, the inspiration , if not The mold for all the Fox strumpets.

30 yrs ahead of her time.

She inspired, and made a single woman a powerful force to be reckoned with.

She made the women's movement highly effective, without going all Gloria Stienem on our Neanderthal ways.


HAD QUITE THE LIFE,
