Her big moment on television was as the teenage niece of Uncle Bill Davis named Cissy Davis on “Family Affair” (1966). After the show ended in 1971 She went to Israel to do the Stage rendition of the same CBS-TV Show in Tel Aviv in 1971.

She met David Travis in 1976 where Wimbledon played that year on NBC Sports where he worked on the coverage and they were married on January 17, 1981 and had a son, Reid in 1991, named after actor Tim Reid.
