Biography

Jane Connell was an American actress and singer who got her start in San Francisco nightclubs before moving to New York, where her first work came Off-Broadway in a 1955 revival of The Threepenny Opera. She soon repeated her part of Mrs. Peachum when that show reached Broadway, and when Once Upon a Mattress played London she took the role of Winifred, a part Carol Burnett had created in New York. In 1966 she was cast as Agnes Gooch in Jerry Herman's Mame on Broadway, and she played Gooch again in the 1974 film version. Her work in Me and My Girl brought a Tony nomination in the featured actress in a musical category. Other Broadway shows included Dear World, Crazy for You and Moon Over Buffalo, and her films included Kotch (1971), House Calls (1978) and Dr. Jekyll and Ms. Hyde (1995). On television she appeared six times on Bewitched and had a recurring role on Big Brother Jake.
