Today is the birthday of actress Jean Stapleton. Though she had a varied career on film and television, she will forever be best known as Edith, the put upon, yet patient, wife of Archie Bunker.



In the item depicted above, Stapleton is shown as Edith (alongside Carroll O'Connor's Archie) singing. Her hilariously off key singing of the show's theme song helped make it one of the most memorable theme songs in television history.
