Many of you probably don't know her. She typically played the sarcastic, crabby old lady in films and TV shows. She was also in commercials.

 

I met her several times as she lived next door to a friend in LA and came to our school to talk to our students a couple of times.

 

In real life she was a sweetheart and very warm and friendly, grandma type.

 

Just posting in her honor.

I have never even seen The West Wing I don't think. I need to see if it is on Netflix.

 

Oh! You do! I am currently re-watching the series, and have decided it's the perfect show for homeschoolers - where else will you find grammar and poetry references in mainstream TV? One of my recent favourites:

 

Ainsley: I'd like to do well on this, my first assignment. Any advice you could give me that might point me the way of success would be, by me, appreciated.

Lionel: Well, not speaking in iambic pentameter might be a step in the right direction.

 

Kathryn Joosten was played a great role in the series.
