Looks like you're in the minority Bill. I agree with Greg. She portrayed the sultry character better than anyone else in CBSRMT lineup. I always thought her best performance was in "The Resident".
Steve Ciampoli
If she is same person I met in early 70s with her "son"?
She was quite charming involved with
Special Olympics and very articulate
Anyone else familiar with that actress?
j. hoberman
I am one of her two daughters. She didn't have a son. But you are correct, she was quite charming...

It is interesting that one person mentioned that he hates Joan Loring's voice. I guess that is what makes a horse race, because I love her voice.
Dan Nelson
I thought she was one of the sexiest sounding actresses on the show, always a pleasure to listen to her.
Greg
Joan's voice is amazing, mysterious, sultry, and precise. She is my favorite actress on the CBSRMT. My favorite episode is "The Devil's Boutique." The storyline is genius and the acting is perfect by each and every character, but especially Joan. I can listen to this episode over and over and never get bored. She is lovely and splendid.

In the picture she has the classic look of a Gibson girl very victorian. In one picture she looks like a angel but her eyes and slight smile says ' I'm thinking evil deeds',. To me that says, a true actress.
