nytimes.com/2020/12/30/arts/… I have long believed that my students say Robinson Ca-ru-so (instead of Crusoe) because of this show. RIP Dawn/Mary Ann.😥

Dawn Wells, Mary Ann on ‘Gilligan’s Island,’ Dies at 82 (Published 2020)

Her character on the ’60s sitcom radiated all-American wholesomeness and youthful charm. After her TV career cooled, she focused on theater acting.
