Well, I&#8217;m posting it for you all, too, of course, but he was <i>there<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>In <i>How to Succeed<\/i>, I played Miss Krumholtz, one of the eternally hopeful (and single) secretaries in the secretary pool.  Of course, all we really cared about was getting married, and so we lived in a state of eternal waiting.   (In one catastrophic scene, we all show up at an office party, one by one, thrilled, thinking maybe this will be the night we meet &#8220;him&#8221;?  And we each had ordered a dress that we have been told is a &#8220;Paris original&#8221;.  Of course we all then show up in the exact same dress.  Tragedy.  END of a woman&#8217;s LIFE.)<\/p>\n<p>Regardless.  Miss Krumholtz is, sadly, not cut out for marriage.  But she doesn&#8217;t know it yet.  She lives in hope.  She believes she will meet her Prince Charming at any moment, although anyone with a brain in her head could see that she will NEVER meet her Prince Charming.  She is clumsy, awkward, and not sexy at all.  (Obvious typecasting.)  She is way too eager, way too pathetic, has nothing of interest to say, and men see her coming and basically run the other way.  But still!  SHE LIVES IN HOPE!!!<\/p>\n<p>Mitchell played my abusive boss.  Which, as you can probably imagine, caused much hilarity for us backstage.  Anyone see the movie <i><a href=\"http:\/\/imdb.com\/title\/tt0274812\/\">Secretary<\/a><\/i>?  That was what we imagined.<\/p>\n<p>Poor Miss Krummy.  Hopeful for a husband.
