Donna Reed and Betty White

Betty White (January 17, 1922- December 31, 2021).

Betty Marion White Ludden was an American actress and comedian celebrated for her legendary smile and comedic timing. Her television career, extending over 80 years, was the longest in the industry. As a television trailblazer, she was among the first women to wield influence both in front of and behind the camera, earning recognition as the first woman to produce a sitcom (Life with Elizabeth).


Donna Reed appears with her in The Best Place to Be, a 1979 American TV film produced by Ross Hunter. It marked Donna Reed's return to acting after 13 years.
