Edna Skinner

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Edna Skinner (1921 - 2003) was an American film and television actress notable for playing "Kay Addison," neighbor of Wilbur Post, in the iconic TV series Mister Ed. Her character was replaced the year after her onscreen husband (Larry Keating) died; according to Alan Young in his Archive of American Television interview, the writers tried to keep her on the show as a widow but finally decided to replace her with another married couple (Gordon and Winnie Kirkwood), played by Leon Ames and Florence MacMichael.

Skinner was also a noted authority on fly fishing.
