Let's play a game. A person will be described. The first person to name that person correctly, poses the next question about someone new. The person can be an author, politician, actor, musician, or even one of our fellow Knowflakes!

Ok, here's the first person. I am going to leave out obvious clues so as not to make it too easy. Name That Person!

This person was born in Tupelo, Mississippi, and had an identical twin brother who died at birth. This person's parents did not have much money. They attended church and were influenced by gospel music. Although when this person grew up, he/she starred in over 33 films, this person is revered for his/her music. Aside from a few performances in Canada, this person never performed in concert outside of the United States. This person is no longer living.

Name That Person

Here goes....

I was born on 18 Nov 1942 in Hartford, CT. My first success was in commercials, but after I went blonde I got a break as a guest star in several TV programs. I went on to star in a TV Western with Lee Majors. When I married my controlling (ex-)husband, my career all but stopped. After our divorce, I had to work my way back to the top, ultimately landing a plum role on one of the most popular nighttime soaps of all time. Since I've retired from acting, I've become very active in environmental causes and have enjoyed a long-term relationship with the handsome New Age Music genius Yanni.

Who am I?

Oh divina, I think I know this!!! Farrah Fawcett? I was raised in the 70's. I didn't know she was into environmental causes! That's great!

Well let me know if I am correct.
