‘Harry’s Girls’ was a trio of shapely young singers and dancers comprising Rusty (Susan Silo), Terry (Diahn Williams) wide-eyed blonde Lois (Dawn Nickerson).
The show’s star, Larry Blyden – who played their manager, Harry Burns – appeared in 59 separate screen tests for the show to whittle down the 320 girls who applied for the roles down to the final three.
The series was filmed in France and loosely based upon the MGM film, Les Girls.
Blyden went on to host numerous game shows (including You’re Putting Me Onand What’s My Line?) before his untimely death in a car accident in Morocco.
