A former nightclub waitress, comedienne Kay Medford made sporadic film appearances from 1942 through 1978. Medford performed a London cabaret act in 1950, one year before making her Broadway bow in the musical Paint Your Wagon. She won the Theatre World Award for her work in the 1955 play Lullaby. Medford is most fondly remembered for re-creating her Broadway role as Rose Brice in Funny Girl onto the Big Screen, for which she was Oscar-nominated. Kay Medford's TV series work included a season as Aunt Harriet in the John Forsythe sitcom To Rome With Love (1970), and her comedy-ensemble contributions to Dean Martin's various variety series of the early 1970s.
