Mary Grace Canfield
Actress; best known as Ralph Monroe on TV's "Green Acres" -- via the New York Daily News. A great deadpan comedian in America's unsung surrealist masterpiece of a TV show. As part of a squabbling, brotherly handyman team with her sibling Alf (Sid Melton), Ralph worked on the bedroom of the Douglases for six years without completing it. With music by the great Vic Mizzy!
