Actress Teri Garr has passed at 79. She started in the 1960s on TV shows like Star Trek and later variety shows especially as supporting dancer (appearing in a number of Elvis Presley films) and comedian with Sonny and Cher. Her greatest popularity was as a film star in such blockbusters as Young Frankenstein, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Oh God, Mr. Mom, a couple of Francis Ford Coppola films, The Conversation and One from the Heart, and her only Oscar nomination for supporting actress in the all time comedy classic, Tootsie. For me, she will always be the adorably, perfect guest among her many funny, late night appearances with host David Letterman.
