For our third feature episode, we'll highlight the unusual career of Estelle Getty, who went from part time actor and housewife to Broadway phenom to instant TV legend. While she delighted millions as Sophia Petrillo, Getty secretly suffered with anxiety and memory issues throughout her years on The Golden Girls. And when she wasn't acting, she was tirelessly raising money and awareness for AIDS charities during the disease's crisis years. We'll also talk about Sophia's star performance in a walkathon and her somewhat antiquated ideas about ladies tennis.
