The Resume

    (December 27, 1942-September 17, 2016)
    Born in Chicago, Illinois
    Birth name was Charmian Farnon
    Portrayed Leisl von Trapp in 'The Sound of Music' (1965)
    Also appeared in 'Evening Primrose' (1966)
    Wrote the books 'Forever Leisl' and 'Letters to Leisl'

Why she might be annoying:

    She was named for a character in Shakespeare's 'Antony and Cleopatra.'
    Her mother got her an audition for 'The Sound of Music' without asking her if she wanted to try out for the part.
    She said, 'I felt smothered by Leisl. She began to feel like my evil twin, the perfect one that everyone loved.'
    She became an interior decorator whose most famous client was Michael Jackson.

Why she might not be annoying:

    Wardrobe forgot to put non-slip pads on her shoes before she filmed 'Sixteen Going on Seventeen,' so she slid through one of the gazebo windows.
    She quit working for Michael Jackson 'because he was so weird.'
    She reconciled with her fame as Leisl, commenting 'It's awfully nice to be remembered for a film that brought happiness to so many.'
