She wa best known for her roles as Mae Barber in Three Days of the Condor (1975), Brenda Baker - mother to Molly Ringwald's character in Sixteen Candles (1984), Jessie Mae in The Trip to Bountiful (1985) (directed by her husband), First Lady Meg Tresch alongside George C.

King, and songwriter Carol Hall, and developed at length in workshop performances at the Studio.
