How did Sally Struthers make a name for herself? Most of her fans will agree that she made it big when she played Gloria Stivic in All in the Family. As the daughter of Archie and Edith Bunker, she became known as America’s sweetheart. This nearly did not happen because Candice Azarra was set to play the character before it went to her. In our minds, Struthers will always be the girl with the blonde pigtails trying to cope with her overbearing dad. Her life has been sailing smoothly since then. She has even become known as one of the biggest TV personalities in the industry thanks to that role.

Even though she is no longer in her prime, her age has not gotten in her way. Sally Struthers, among other things, has always supported the Christian Children’s Fund. Now called ChildFund, its goal is to help poor and hungry children in the global south. In 2014, the actress also played Dolly in a Hello, Dolly! production. The actress was parodied in the “Starvin’ Marvin” episode of South Park, which pointed out that her lifestyle did not go well with her efforts to help the needy. The suggestion that she herself is hoarding food allegedly upset the actress, but who could blame her for it?
