When I was in fourth grade… this wonderful teacher said you didn’t have to write a book report, you could just talk about the book, you could do a drawing of the book, you could write a play inspired by the book, and that’s what I did. I got to be so famous. I had to go around to every school and perform it. It was just so natural and fun.

My teachers encouraged me to audition for some professional work during our summer vacation. I landed my first job. It was for the National Theatre Company's Mimika Pantomime troupe. I ended up touring with them for the next two years.

Birth: | 13th July, 1951 |
Nationality: | American |
Profession: | Actress |
Didi Conn was born in Brooklyn, New York. She is an American film, stage and television actress. She began her career performing occasional voices on the Hanna-Barbera cartoon "The Jetsons". In the 1970s, she began appearing on such shows as "Happy Days" and "The Rookies". Conn's performance as Laurie Robinson on '77's "You Light Up My Life" was singled out as a bright spot in an otherwise lackluster film. She also appeared on Robert Guillaume's beloved comedy series "Benson" and in the feature-length kids' movie "Thomas and the Magic Railroad".
