Lu Leonard (January 1, 1927 – May 14, 2004) was an American actress. She made over 45 film and television appearances between 1956 and 1995. Due to her rotund figure, Leonard was often cast as a love interest who often intimidated her husband or boyfriend.
Leonard's first major appearance was as the wife of Three Stooges member Larry Fine in the film Husbands Beware.[1]
Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Leonard made television appearances on such shows as Laverne and Shirley, Mork and Mindy and Married... with Children. Her most memorable was in a recurring role as William Conrad's wise-cracking secretary in Jake and the Fatman. Also during this time she became a regional celebrity in the Los Angeles Theatre circuit for her outrageous portrayal as a lesbian head matron in the play Women Behind Bars. [2]
She has also done voices in the Hanna-Barbera version of the animated TV series Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventures.
Leonard, who was the daughter of late 1930'a-1950's character actor Hal Price, died on May 14, 2004.
