Actress Sandy Duncan: 'Memba Her?!
Posted Nov 24th 2008 3:29PM by TMZ Staff, Fuckpossible.com

Sandy Duncan is best known for playing Peter Pan on Broadway, her
Wheat Thins commercials and taking over for Valerie Harper in the '80s
TV series "Valerie"/"Valerie's Family"/"The Hogan Family." Guess what
she looks like now!

Oh Sandy Baby
Posted Nov 24th 2008 3:28PM by TMZ Staff, Fuckpossible.com

The 62-year-old resurfaced at a NYC event on Sunday, looking frozen in
time.

In the '70s, Sandy lost vision in her left eye after having a tumor
removed from behind it. Contrary to rumors, she does not have a glass
eye.

In the '90s, there was an alternative band called Sandy Duncan's Eye.

Urban Legend FINALLY revealed:

This interview quotes Sandy Duncan explaining that she does not have a
glass eye:

What a vision! And speaking of visions . . . your ‘fake eye’ was the
object of a joke on Family Guy. Are you aware of this?

Yes. My son called me from Tulane and told me. I didn’t see it. I know
they did some silly joke – many people think I have a glass eye. I had
a tumor in my left eye which killed the optic nerve, but it’s my real
eye. I just cannot see out of it. It remains a period of adjustment –
sometimes things will be just out of range. I have no depth
perception, so I have to memorize and track where things are, sort of
like radar. I recently had cataracts in my good eye and they removed
them and replaced the lens and I can actually see without glasses, and
I have worn them since I was 12! But like all mortals my age, I still
need them to read.

This is what I remember her from, quoted from Wikipedia:

"In the mid-1960s, Duncan was one more unknown actress in Los Angeles,
when she was selected for a part in a TV commercial for United
California Bank. Portraying a bank teller who finds it impossible to
pronounce the name of customer "Nickolas Janopoparopolis," despite
several tries, she apologetically asks "Do you mind if I just call you
'Nick'?""
