Ms. Swenson is AMAZING in The Miracle Worker. Her love for her daughter, Helen, is so tangible. She portrays motherly love and hope and joy and dismay in such a way that it is very real. I was touched beyond words at her acting, and often just wept with her performance. When I came to look her up, I was very surprised to see the other shows I knew her from: Taxi, Benson and others. What a fine actress, and so, so lovely. I thank her for her work.

I saw Inga today in a 1962 Bonanza episode. In a flashback told by Ben to Hoss, she's travelling West in a covered wagon with husband Ben Cartwright and his young son Adam and she gives birth to baby Hoss. She really did look radiant as a new mother holding that baby. Then she gets shot by Indians with an arrow in the back. Before she dies she urges Ben to fulfill their dream of making a new home and raising their family. Very emotional stuff even after 55 years.
