I've always loved Marion Lorne. It wasn't a much of a stretch for her to play 'Aunt Clara' on BEWITCHED. Aunt Clara's doorknob collection actually came from Marion's personal collection.... of doorknobs! She was also a regular cast member of the Wally Cox series MR. PEEPERS, which aired live in the early '50's. She played Mrs. Gurney.
