Ah, Piccolo Pupa. Is she a musical instrument or is she an insect? I'm sure it will come as absolutely no surprise that i knew who she was. She appeared on the last season or so of The Danny Thomas Show. Danny and his wife ran into her on a trip to Italy and for some reason brought her back to the states. She was his protege, off and on the show. She never became that successful here but is still popular in Italy.
GITIB is one of my favorite 1960's movies for what i am sure is an obvious reason. Aside from NS, i also liked Quinn O'Hara a lot. We were Facebook friends until her recent passing.
