Many will remember Patty Duke, playing the part of Helen Keller in the movie "The Miracle Worker," for which she received an Oscar. At the time, Patty was 16 and the youngest person to have received an Academy Award for Supporting Actress. But she also won two Golden Globe awards and three Emmys. And Patty had a top 10 hit on the Billboard charts. If you were around in the 60s, you probably watched the "Patty Duke Show" and who could forget Neely O'Hara in the "Valley of the Dolls?" Her part in this movie, as an alcoholic, drug-addicted singing star, almost ruined her career. The critics and audiences had a hard time accepting this all-American teenager playing a very adult role.
