KATHY MAY HAVE BEEN
CISSY...BUT SHE LOVES GAMES
By Steve Beverly
Webmaster, TVgameshows.net

     Kathy Garver turned many a teenage boy's head during the years she was Cissy Davis on CBS's Family Affair. She still can.
     At July's Game Show Congress 5 in Burbank, Garver made a young fellow named Joe Van Ginkel happy. Playing a brief trivia game before her testimonial for Peter Marshall, Garver awarded an autographed edition of the first season DVD edition of Family Affair to Van Ginkel for his correct answer.
     Van Ginkel quickly knew the Marshall-named "lox box" on Hollywood Squares was the lower tier center square. Garver knew of the box from firsthand knowledge. It's where she sat on most of her 25 appearances on Squares.
     Forty years after she began to essay the role of America's most popular TV teenager (Jeff and Mary Stone, Beaver and Wally Cleaver and the Nelson boys had all fallen victim to the graveyard of cancellation), Garver still has the same energetic and vivacious personality she displayed in five years on Family Affair.
     In this week's Cover Story, Garver recalls how Cissy was her ticket into the door of game shows, a door she gladly walked through as often as someone would ask.
