Whatever Happened to Ann Jillian, Star of ‘It’s a Living’ and ‘Jennifer Slept Here’?

The first time I saw Ann Jillian on TV, she was playing super-sassy waitress Cassie on the ABC sitcom It’s a Living. But while this was my first exposure to Ann, she’d been in the entertainment business since she was just a young girl, appearing  in movies like Disney’s Babes in Toyland and Gypsy with Natalie Wood.

But  It’s a Living is where Ann caught my eye. Although she was great on that show, ABC canceled it in 1982 after just two seasons, which gave her the chance to jump networks and join Jennifer Slept Here over at NBC.
