    Born in Bennington, Vermont
    Valerie Clark in ‘A Chorus Line’ and Amber / Angel in ‘The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas’ (original casts)

Why she might be annoying:

    She originally planned to become a Radio City Rockette… to meet her idols.
    The only female in the cast of ‘Of Mice and Men,’ she was known only as ‘Curley’s wife.’
    While A Chorus Line lasted 15 years, she played the pigtailed Val for only about two years.
    She had at least four daytime soap opera appearances under her belt — one for which she received a Daytime Emmy nomination as a guest performer.
    While she was married for roughly seven years, there is online confusion as to whether she had married once before or since (and to the exact location of her death).

Why she might not be annoying:

    She pointed to her job as a motel chambermaid as motivation to suck it up and push forward in her aspirations.
    She would remain active in the creative process of A Chorus Line.
    Talk about impact! ‘Dance: Ten, Looks: Three’ – her showcase number – was often cited as a highlight of the musical.
    One animated feature under her belt, too: ‘Beavis and Butt-Head Do America’ (as the flight attendant and White House tour guide).
    She owned a therapeutic massage studio for athletes.
