What was the name of the actress who played Rowena on the episode where Ernest T. Bass and the boys went to a private dance at this rich lady's house who thought he was from Boston?

I think this actress was very pretty. I cannot find her name on the internet.

Jackie Joseph (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0430604/), she was married to Ken Berry for several years.

Yes, that is her name. I think she was a very beautiful woman and I have seen her in other 1960's stuff. Really cute lady. Be interested what she looks like now as an older woman.

I wonder what happened to her and Ken Berry? Ken Berry has always seemed very affable person who was a skilled performer, especially with dance. Had he lived about 30 years before, he would have probably been a bigger star.

There is a YouTube clip from the Carol Burnett show with Ken Berry doing a dance routine (a tap or soft shoe, dunno the formal terms) and he was bad ass. He was dancing solo and managed to move his body across the dance floor merely by pivoting his left foot and glide. Cheesy 70's routine and frankly, I never much cared for Berry as an actor, but as someone who likes dance, he was probably just behind Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire in that department.
