The Life of Sitcom Legend Elizabeth Montgomery

As she grows up, her relationship with her father becomes increasingly strained despite his influence on her early career. According to pop culture historian and author Geoffrey Mark, “Elizabeth had a very complicated relationship with her father,” shaped in part by being “the child of a big celebrity” and getting her first acting experience on Robert Montgomery Presents.
