Saw her tonight in what I think was her debut on "Good Times". Was her first appearance as the lady in the un-employment office? Did she appear in any other episodes playing a different character?

She wasn't in the unemployment office.

You thought the lady who was behind the unemployment desk was her? If so no Ms. Bookman was much darker

Yes, the unemployment clerk lady who asks JJ "sex?" & JJ says "occasionally". This is not Marilyn Coleman I guess.

No, that's not her. She is also the same lady who was the waitress in the bar when Florida and Willona went out together.

Mrs. Bookman is not seen until season 5.

Wow, OK. The waitress with the blond wig, that says to Florida, "Got lucky hah?" Would have never guessed they were the same person, guess the wig threw me off.
