The time I met David Niven . . .

During my stint as a Golddigger I had the opportunity to perform on the "1971 Emmy Awards TV Show". Lots of stars were in attendence and I was very excited to be part of the show.

I found out that one of my childhood crushes, David Niven,,was going to be on the show. While waiting back stage before the performance, I noticed that David Niven was sharing a dressing room with Jack Lemmon. Mr. Lemmon was chatting with some of the

Golddiggers, so I joined the group. After the other girls had drifted away, I asked Jack Lemmon if he was indeed sharing a dressing room with David Niven? (my face turning beet red in the process) Mr. Lemmon smiled and asked me if I would like to meet him. But upon checking the dressing room, David Niven was no where to be found.

The show went on and afterwards I was getting ready to leave when I ran into Jack Lemmon in the backstage hallway. He immediately grabbed my hand and started running in the direction of the exit. He was shouting, "David! David, you have to meet my sister!" I received a kiss on the cheek and a great photo with David Niven, courtesy of the incredible Jack Lemmon!
