Coffee With Jeff

This is episode 219 and today I bring you the story of the Amazing Ruth Gordon. Most know were from the films she was in in the late 60s and 1970s. The thing is, Ruthie had an over 50-year acting career before most moviegoers heard of her. She was a writer as well. Oh, did I mention she asked to have both her legs broken and they were?
