Career
While at the University of Miami, Pflug hosted a weekly radio show called "The Magic Carpet",[5] where she was the storyteller. Following that, for four years she hosted a weekly live interview talk show called Montage.

She also was the voice of Invisible Girl in the 1967 animated version of Fantastic Four.

She starred in the TV werewolf movie Scream of the Wolf (1974) alongside Peter Graves and Clint Walker.[8]
Pflug was a frequent panelist on the television game show Match Game from 1973 until 1981,[9] a co-host with Allen Funt on the 1970s version of Candid Camera, and a regular in the TV series The Fall Guy for the 1981–1982 season.[8]
