Actor Born: March 23, 1947 in Poughkeepsie, NY Biography:Towering (5'11") redheaded actress "Barbara Rhoades" was 20 years old when she signed her first studio contract with Universal. She was possessed of a self-sufficiency and breezy sense of humor that belied her youth. The best of her early screen roles was gun-toting lady bandit Penelope Cushings in the 1968 "Don Knotts" vehicle "Shakiest Gun in the West" (a remake of "The Paleface" [1948] wherein Rhoades' role was played by "Jane Russell"). Beginning with 1977's Busting Loose, she was a regular on several TV sitcoms. For reasons best known to casting directors, "Barbara Rhoades" almost always ended up playing someone named Maggie: Maggie Gallegher in Hangin' In (1979), Maggie Chandler in "Soap" (1980-1981), Maggie Davis in You Again? (1986). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
