And A Sad Farewell To Another Legend Of The Musical Stage--Lynn Kellogg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                     Few performers are lucky enough to attain Musical Theater Legend status on  the basis of an appearance in a single show.  Lynn Kellogg,  whose  name you may not recall--though hard core Theater  Queens should know--was one of those.  She played Sheila Franklin,  the female lead, in the 1968 Broadway blockbuster--"HAIR."  She was in the  Original Cast with Shelley Plimpton and Company, and, like Shelley,  had one of  the few solos  in the  show--she introduced "Easy To Be Hard."

                                       This alone  grants her status.   But Lynn went on to do television, shows  for children,  and while  keeping a low  profile, was always working, at some time.   I  know another "HAIR" cast member, Lamont Washington, died  in a fire,  during the Original Broadway run,  but I do not know  if  any others have passed,  besides he and Lynn.

                                        

                                         Here is Lynn, singing the  song she introduced!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                         Sadly, she died of Covid 19, aged 77.  Rest In Peace,  Lynn!!!!!!!!!!!!!

        

                                                Here is Lynn, standing, on  the cover of "Cavalier" magazine.  On the left is Shelley Plimpton, and, to her right, is Melba Moore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
