Tammy Grimes
Slim, pixie-like, two-time Tony Award winner Tammy Grimes who put on marvelously quirky Cowardesque airs and captivated audiences with her inimitably throaty, raspy voice was actually not British but born in Lynn, Massachusetts, on January 30, 1934, the daughter of Eola Willard (née Niles), a naturalist and spiritualist, and Luther Nichols Grimes, an innkeeper, country-club manager, and farmer. She attended the all-girls Beaver Country Day School in nearby Chestnut Hill and later received entry at Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri, before relocating to New York for professional acting purposes. Grimes studied at the Neighborhood Playhouse and made her NY debut there in "Jonah and the Whale" in 1955. Broadway offers came shortly after, first as a standby for Kim Stanley as Cherie in "Bus Stop" in June 1955. In 1956, she appeared in the off-Broadway production "The Littlest Revue," performed in a cross-country tour of "The Lark," made an Obie-winning appearance in the off-Broadway play "Clerambard," and in 1959 nabbed the lead role in Noël Coward's play "Look After Lulu!" on Broadway after the renowned playwright discovered her distinctive style of singing at Julius Monk's Downstairs at the Upstairs nightclub in New York. She won a Theatre World Award for that. She later was guest star at the New York City Opera in a revival of "The Cradle will Rock," recreating the role of Moll. On the classical side, Tammy starred with the American Shakespeare Festival at Stratford, Connecticut, as Mistress Quickly in "Henry IV", and Mopsa in 'The Winter's Tale". Earning the role of the indomitable, rags-to-riches, Titanic-surviving Molly Brown in the 1960 musical comedy "The Unsinkable Molly Brown", Grimes won a Tony Award as "Best Featured Actress in a Musical" (due to below the title rules at the time). She followed this with the 1963 play "Rattle of a Simple Man" in 1963. On TV she appeared twice on the popular series "Route 66" and is fondly remembered for her performance in four TV specials: "Four for Tonight" with Cyril Ritchard, Beatrice Lillie and Tony Randall; "Hollywood Sings" with Eddie Albert; "The Datchet Diamonds" with Rex Harrison, and Play of the Week: Archy and Mehitabel (1960) with Eddie Bracken. Grimes was originally offered the part of Samantha Stevens in the sitcom Bewitched (1964) but was released from her contract when friend Noël Coward asked her to star on Broadway as Elvira in "High Spirits", a musical directed by Coward himself and based on his own comedic play, "Blithe Spirit." The role of Samantha in Bewitched (1964) went to Elizabeth Montgomery and the series was a smash hit. 1966-67 were tepid years for the actress. After "Bewitched", Grimes finally received her own ABC television series, The Tammy Grimes Show (1966), playing a wealthy heiress but the show was not well-received and dropped quickly, making it one of the shortest series shown in TV history. That same year she was featured in her first film, Three Bites of the Apple (1967), a diverting comedy starring British actor David McCallum and Italian actress Sylva Koscina. The film helped showcase Grimes's quirky talents, but it made no impression on the public and pretty much put the bite on a leading lady career. Later she was sporadically and sometimes bizarrely featured into such films as Play It As It Lays (1972), Somebody Killed Her Husband (1978), The Runner Stumbles (1979), America (1986), Mr. North (1988), Slaves of New York (1989), A Modern Affair (1995), and High Art (1998). Grimes became the toast of New York when she appeared in a revival of Noël Coward's "Private Lives" as "Amanda", winning her second Tony Award, this time for "Best Actress". During her career, she also spent several seasons at the Stratford Festival in Canada. In addition to night clubs, she has also recorded several albums of songs, recited poetry, and hosted CBS Radio Mystery Theater. In 2003, Grimes was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame and later that year was invited by The Noel Coward Society (she later became its vice president) to be the first celebrity to lay flowers on the statue of Sir Coward at The Gershwin Theatre in Manhattan to celebrate the playwright's 104th birthday. In 2007, the septuagenarian returned to the cabaret stage in a critically acclaimed one-woman show at the Plush Room, "An Evening with Miss Tammy Grimes." Grimes was married three times. First to actor Christopher Plummer in August 1956, by whom she had actress Amanda Plummer. The couple were divorced in 1960. Her second husband was actor Jeremy Slate, whose marriage in 1966 lasted but a year. Her 1971 union to Canadian composer Richard Jameson Bell, was a great success and lasted until his death in 2005. Tammy Grimes died on October 30, 2016, aged 82, in Englewood, New Jersey, from undisclosed causes. She was survived by her brother, Luther Nichols "Nick" Grimes Jr., and her Tony-winning actress/daughter Amanda.

Tammy Hyler
Tammy Hyler's career took a few creative turns before landing a hit country songwriting career in Nashville. Born and raised in Mesa, Arizona, Hyler moved to Los Angeles at 18 for an entry level job at Creative Artists Agency that would change her life. By day, Hyler learned the film and TV industry from the inside of the most successful talent agencies in the world, and by night, she moonlighted singing her original country songs with the band she formed, Tammy Hyler and Full House. Her day gig at the front desk at CAA working under 2 of Hollywood's biggest moguls Michael Ovitz and Ron Meyer, soon landed her the job as assistant to another one of Hollywood's biggest moguls, Jeffrey Katzenberg, head of Disney Studios/Touchstone Pictures, and one of the famed founders of DreamWorks. "I spent thirteen years in L.A. working in the film industry by day and making music at night, but the last few years there I was super focused on my music. In L.A. it wasn't easy to be a country artist, there were only a few of us like myself, Jeffrey Steele and Boy Howdy, but then Garth hit, and suddenly, country was all the rage! My band and I were booked everywhere, The Palomino, The Central (now The Viper Room), Marix on Sunset, The Troubadour, even The Roxbury on Sunset." I'd be on stage playing my set and celebrities like Sylvester Stallone, Rob Lowe, Emilio Estevez and Demi Moore, and Sting would come watch me play. Eventually, Nashville's pull was too strong to resist, and in 1993, Tammy packed up and moved to the Music City. Before long, Hyler's songs were being recorded by many of country music's heavyweights. Her first two singles were back-to-back #1's on country radio with Collin Raye's "I Can Still Feel You" quickly followed by Martina McBride's "I Love You," both songs becoming the longest radio hits of Collin Raye's and Martina McBride's careers. I LOVE YOU was also featured in the Julia Roberts movie, Runaway Bride and on the multi-platinum soundtrack. Throughout her time in Nashville, Tammy has amassed a catalog of hits and other recordings from George Strait, Shania Twain, Wynona Judd, JoDee Messina, Sara Evans, Pam Tillis, Journey, Clay Walker...and additional recordings by Martina McBride and Collin Raye, just to name a few. During Tammy's twenty-plus years in Nashville, she was signed for 9 years as a staff-writer in the world's largest publishing company, Sony ATV. 2006, Hyler signed a deal for 6 more years with Godfather Rich Muzik (owned by country music and tv star, John Rich) and Skyline Music (owned by Paul Worley, producer of Dixie Chicks, Lady Antebellum, Martina McBride). Hyler's songs have been in 100's of television shows and several major motion pictures including Run Away Bride, Desperate Housewives, Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen, and the Rene Zellweger, Harry Connick Jr. movie, New In Town. In 2013, Hyler went back to her Hollywood roots and produced her first motion picture, Like A Country Song, starring Billy Ray Cyrus, Joel Smallbone (lead singer of grammy winning Christian band For King and Country), Larry Gatlin, and Boo Boo Stewart (Twilight saga and X-Men: Days of Future Past). She also co-wrote and co- produced 9 of the movie's songs, including the radio single and title track by Billy Ray Cyrus...and spearheaded the formation of the movie's soundtrack. Hyler also associate produced Christmas movie, Evergreen, starring Robert Loggia, Naomi Judd, and Greer Grammer, and in 2015 Hyler associate produced, acted in, and even 2nd AD'd the film I'm Not Ashamed, the true story of Rachel Joy Scott, the first victim of the 1999 Columbine high school shootings, released by PureFlix. 2016, Hyler co-produced and scored a documentary on the important issue of teen homelessness in America called Lost In America, gaining the support of mega stars involved with the project such as Jon Bon Jovi, Miley Cyrus, Russell Simmons, Jewel, Halle Berry, and Rosario Dawson, set for release in late 2018. In fall of 2017, Hyler formed her own company, Smashville Entertainment, to include her film/television production under the same roof as her own songwriting publishing. 2020 Hyler created, wrote, and produced a critically acclaimed pilot for a scripted drama tv series called Way Back In The Woods starring Hallie Rose, Abby Glover, Alexis Ebert, and Maddi Thompson, filmed entirely in Nashville, and won 13 various awards in the 2021 Film Festival season including Best Episodic Pilot for the hometown win at the prestigious Franklin International Independent Film Festival. Overall, Hyler's film releases have been critical and financial successes, and her songs have brought more than $13 Million in earnings to herself, her co-writers and music publishers. Hyler has received numerous ASCAP awards, NSAI awards, film festival awards, and was nominated for a Dove award. "I'm just so grateful to God I get to tell stories for a living and bring my two worlds of music and filmmaking together in full circle. I've always said I'm just a country girl with a Hollywood heart!"
