Doris Singleton (I Love Lucy's Carolyn Appleby) has Died

[joeybee12]

Actress Doris Singleton, best known as Lucy and Ricky Ricardo’s neighbor and occasional nemesis Carolyn Appleby on I Love Lucy, died Tuesday in Los Angeles. She was 92.

Singleton met I Love Lucy star Lucille Ball before a performance of My Favorite Husband, the radio show that preceded I Love Lucy. She appeared in 10 episodes of the 1951-57 sitcom — including the classic with guest star Harpo Marx and Ball mimicking each other's moves as in a mirror — as the wife of a radio station owner played by Hy Averback.

"Harpo played a concert for us afterward," Singleton recalled in a 2005 interview with the Archive of American Television. "I loved [doing that episode] because I was one of the blondes he was chasing!"

Singleton would go on to appear alongside Ball on many of her other shows through the years.
