biography
A perky, attractive curly-haired character player and occasional lead, Annie Potts is highly adept at both sassy, deadpan wisecracks and more live wire antics. She first gained widespread attention in features as daffy secretary Janine Melnitz in "Ghostbusters" (1984), which she reprised in the 1989 sequel. Potts later became a TV star portraying the witty but conscientious interior decorator Mary Jo Shively on the popular Dixie-flavored sitcom, "Designing Women" (CBS, 1986-93).The petite redhead began her career in theater, and in addition to acting, also worked as a set and costume designer.
