She played the maternal grandma on PF. I just saw her in "On Moonlight Bay" released in 1951. She played Doris Day's mom. A cute movie. Has anyone ever seen her other films?

I've seen her in 'Love That Bob/Bob Cummings Show' in which she played the title character's widowed sister who also played the mother of Dwayne Hickman's character. Between the two of them (and Ann B. Schulz who played Bob's secretary 'Shultzy'), it wound up that Miss De Camp was the show's straight woman but she occasionally would get a good dig in as the years progressed.

She had a part in the classic William Castle movie "13 Ghosts" (1960).
She appeared in several episodes of PETTICOAT JUNCTION as Aunt Helen, the sister of Kate Bradley (Bea Benaderet). When Benaderet temporarily left the show while battling cancer, De Camp was brought in the fill the void. Benaderet returned to the show, but died within a few months of her return. The producers of PETTICOAT JUNCTION wanted to add De Camp to the show on a permanent basis, but she turned them down because ABC was working on a TV pilot for a sitcom starring John Forsyth and De Camp was cast to play his wife. The show with Forsyth was never produced, and PETTICOAT JUNCTION added June Lockhart instead. |
