Donna Douglas, who played the buxom tomboy Elly May Clampett on the hit 1960s sitcom "The Beverly Hillbillies," has died.
Douglas died Thursday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, near her hometown of Zachary. The cause of death was pancreatic cancer, said her niece, Charlene Smith. Douglas was 82.
She was best known for her role in "The Beverly Hillbillies," the CBS comedy about a backwoods Ozark family who moved to Beverly Hills after striking it rich from oil discovered on their land.

The screen name Frank Cannon was also used on the TBL site years ago...a site definitely not similar to DU. Wonder if it is the same person.
What a wonderfully delightful character actress! She was also in a classic Twilight Zone Episode “Eye of the Beholder”........RIP swimming in the cement pond.
That’s an interesting question. Can’t be too many fans of Frank, out there, these days, can there ? Thanks for your reply.
Ginger.....good, keep your hands off my Mary Ann. lol
