Peggy King & Art Linkletter

but IMDb is wrong and it was NOT an actress named Judy O'Neill who was the little girl with the two boyfriends. That was me, Julie O'Neal Hines. I've asked them repeatedly to correct this and can provide proof. We were each given a $100 savings bond for our guest appearance. My mother was seated in the audience in front of Mel Blanc and said he was absolutely hilarious. I had always heard stories about my performance on the show and was thrilled to find it and be able to see myself at the age of 5. Art Linkletter was an extremely kind person. I don't think we actually met Jack Benny or at least I don't remember it, but as with every John Guedel production we were treated like tiny VIP's. I was on Linkletter's show 11 times and would love to have a copy of the kinescopes. I do remember the interview for the show at John Guedel Productions and when we were told it was for Jack Benny's show my parents were thrilled. I enjoy watching Jack Benny in old movies and TV shows - he was a wonderful comedian and had the ability to do a deadpan delivery of some really funny lines. I loved it that he imitated me by swinging his legs in the adult segment of the show!
