"You got 7 out of 10. Hey, great job! You know your stuff!"

I knew who Ginny Simms was because she was in a Abbott & Costello movie and was a knock out.

7/10. Pretty good for being most familiar with Dick Van Dyke Show reruns, Hollywood Squares and two episodes of The Monkees.

My Mom saw her when she performed as a child in PA. Before going on she made the Sign of the Cross. She was known as Baby Rose Marie then.

Besides Rob and Laura, all the major characters on the Dick Van Dyke Show were Jewish,
as were the actors portraying them. At least according to various sources I read over
the years. Are you sure Rose Marie was Christian? Not that it matters, maybe the sources
I had read were wrong.

Missed one. Have seen her perform as a kid during the shorts on Turner Classic Movies. She was a pistol as Baby Rose Marie.

I know so little about Rose Marie that half the time I still think she is George Clooney‘s aunt 🤦‍♀️. All I know is you could always count on her to be extremely funny in whatever project she was doing. And just as an fyi, I did discover she has a Twitter page run by her daughter who posts behind the scenes and vacation photos of Rose Marie over the years every once in a while along with some memories. Not horribly active but the photos are fun.
