Carrie Snodgress---What Happened to Her After "Diary"?

Chicago Sun-Times, Friday, October 17, 1975, p. 90, c. 1:KUP'S COLUMNChicago actress Carrie Snodgress, who went into eclipse after a brief fling in Hollywood (she won raves for her performance in "Diary of a Mad Housewife"), is back home to attend the Saturday wedding of her father Harry to Marge Binder. Carrie and her boy friend, recording star Neil Young, had been living on a ranch near San Franciso for the last five years, during which she gave birth to a son, Zeke, no 3. The idyl is now over and Carrie has moved back to Hollywood to resume her career. Her first role probably will be in "Princess Mary and Sitting Bull."_________________________
