I'll never forget my Mom dragging me to "Valley of the Dolls", and my first exposure to Duke. She was an iconic '60s girl, and will always be remembered as my first cinematic crush. Geez, I just dated myself as a Patty Duke fanboy(head hung in shame, expecting mirthful chuckles to follow).

RIP Patty.

I used to watch "The Patty Duke Show" reruns in the 70's, most everyday after school. Patty was a great dramatic actress, as well as being a talented comedian. Go with the angels, Patty. You entertained many people for many years.

OP, Thanks for posting.

That was before my time, but based on previous roles, she surprised a lot of critics with her performance. That was a gem.

Yikes! Wikipedia says she died of sepsis from a ruptured intestine! That is just horrible


Wikipedia link

[ETA: Seems that is not too uncommon after some surgeries. Not sure if she had one just what I heard]

That's not young, but it's still youngish for this kind of post.

Sorry to see her go.
