Starting today will be featuring a daily post on each of Joan's TV work.. Although I don't have a photo from every show, I do have quite a good few. Today it's "The Steve Allen Plymouth Show", which is Joan's first listed American television appearance. I don't have images from this episode but will improvise!

Guest JEFF CHANDLER

Steve Allen was the first host of "The Tonight Show" and he was instrumental in starting the talk show as we know it today... Steve first aired "The Steve Allen Show" in 1956 at NBC on Sunday nights and continued to also do "The Tonight Show" for three nights a week. Then in 1957 he left the show to devote time to his Sunday night show and his show ran until September 1959... Joan's appeared on the show to accept an award from Motion Picture Magazine, her episode aired on 1st September 1957.. Other guests on the show were Pearl Bailey and Jeff Chandler...
