Facts of Life is one of those shows that was on forever and that I never watched. I think I saw maybe 2 episodes. Charlotte Ray was a charming actress. glad to know she had such a long life.

Always liked her. Don’t know her politics and don’t think I ever heard her say anything political, which is kind of surprising considering she was on what I think would be considered kind of a “left-leaning” show.

Earliest I recall seeing her was as the Tupperware lady on All in the Family. Edith hosts her first Tupperware party.
When Rae’s character sits in front of her.
Edith says I welcome you with open noses as Rae picks her nose.

I'm guessing you're not a female born between 1965 and 1980.

LOL, nope. I also never watched that show with Bob Saget in which he had several daughters and there were two other guys helping him raise them (though I always thought Lori Loughlin was cute).

I remember her from Car 54, Where Are You?, one of the funniest shows of the early sixties. Very long career. RIP.

As a young lad, I had a crush on Kim Fields.

I never saw any of these shows in the 1970's.I was too busy living life itself and watched other programs. Truthfully, The Muppet Show was more intellectual than most other current fare on the tube.

On Friday Hollyweird announced a proposed “Facts of Life” reboot. Coincidence? I think not, Ms. Rae was murdered by disgust.
