Teri Garr is turning 73 today. She got into movies through a friend, choreographer David Winters, who got her several parts as a dancer in 1960s films, including several Elvis Presley musicals. She also began making TV guest appearances in the mid-sixties. Over the years she made memorable guest appearances on Star Trek, MASH, and Friends (as Phoebe’s mother (http://friends.wikia.com/wiki/Phoebe_Abbott)). She was a regular on the short-lived CBS series Women of the House, a Designing Women spinoff.
Garr had her first speaking feature film role in 1968, but her breakthrough came in 1974, when she played Gene Hackman’s girlfriend in The Conversation, and Gene Wilder’s assistant in Young Frankenstein. Over the next decade or so she had major roles in a number of films, including Oh, God!, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Black Stallion, and Mr. Mom. Her biggest fame came from her Oscar-nominated role as Sandy Lester in Tootsie.

Garr’s career slowed down considerably starting in the mid-1980s. The full story as to why would probably require a WTHH article, but part of the reason is that she began feeling the symptoms of what would later be diagnosed as MS.
