She is perhaps best known for her role as Betty Jones, Buddy Ebsen's secretary and daughter-in-law in the long-running 1970s crime drama, Barnaby Jones. The role earned her two Golden Globe Award nominations in 1975 and 1976, and an Emmy Award nomination in 1977. She is also known for her role as John Schuck's long-haired wife, Lily Munster, in the 1980s sitcom The Munsters Today, as well as for her portrayal of Catwoman in the 1966 film version of Batman.

| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | [on the death of Buddy Ebsen]: Oh, immediately. What a wonderful man he was, I miss him desperately. |
| 2 | [Of Buddy Ebsen]: I loved working with Buddy Ebsen. I was so lucky to have been given that opportunity. Eight years with this lovely gentleman. It was an experience for which I will always be grateful. The chemistry between us was immediate. I met him in his dressing room for the first time and we talked later about that first meeting and how immediate it was that we knew we bonded then. And it was, it was so fabulous. |
| 3 | [on her professional friendship with Buddy Ebsen, who played Barnaby Jones]: Well, basically, nice guys can finish last. He was really a wonderful man and a delight to work with and he loved his crew. He was very generous, they [the show's producers] adored him, and I firmly believe that they had the opportunity to go on to other more lucrative shows, but they chose to stay with us for eight years, which is highly unusual. |
| 4 | [on Bill Bixby]: I would describe his quality, that 'it' quality, as a kind of charismatic magic. I mean, he really had it as a child. That face, he could somehow note, off-key, didn't matter. |
| 5 | You know, I've been so incredibly lucky. One hears so many horror stories from actresses who test for role after role and never get anything. I've been working steadily for more years than I care to count. I definitely consider myself to be one of the lucky ones. |
