If you and Mary do this again, I’d like to hear more about her mom’s involvement in Another Mother for Peace. I used to hear how Donna and Mary would drive off to an old warehouse where a group of them would prepare and mail envelopes to politicians in Washington to try to end our involvement in the Vietnam war. At one point Donna went to Congress, and according to Paul Petersen she confronted Henry Kissinger.
At any rate, Donna Reed is one of the very, very few Hollywood stars I have never heard anything negative about. A lady of quiet strength whom everybody loved and respected.
I just happened upon your UA-cam channel because I was reading about Donna Reed on Wikipedia, and the reason I was on Wikipedia reading about Donna was because I have been on a "DONNA REED SHOW" watching binge since I have been recuperating from a left inner thigh ripped tendon. Don't even know how I did it but I'm 69 y.o. so that probably explains it.
I had to let you know what a wonderful interview it was with Mary! And, I have become just as find of her as I am of her mom! Of course I watched the Donna Reed Show when I was a kid in the sixties, and reruns, but have been binging on the show which I watch on HULU now. Tell Mary, that I put on the DRS at night when I'm falling asleep, because it's so comforting to me, and takes me back to a time when life was simpler, and felt more towards others. The show has a lot of wonderful moral lessons as well, that would be highly valuable to kids growing up now, especially the way the world has become lately. I know that kids have it more difficult than back when the show depicts, so the old classic family shows, especially Donna Reed's show, are important to show people that families are important, as well as community. So now I can honestly say that I have seen every episode a few times. Donna Reed was a very special lady, and an important woman for film and TV, for then and know. And that says a lot about who a person is. She is timeless. Thanks so much for this interview, and thrilled that I found it by happenstance!
I have seen every episode of The Donna Reed Show multiple times. It would be wonderful if I could watch them all again in color.
Donna Reed was paid $20,000 for her first movie role in "It's a Wonderful Life" which is equivalent to about $800,000 in today's money. Not too shabby.
That wasn't her first movie role.
Our theatre near Vancouver, B.C. plays it every other year and so I have seen it a couple of times in the theatre. It was
such a special experience. Everyone clapped and called out Merry Christmas at the end of the film. This is a highly
enjoyable interview. Thank you so much.
Love Donna reed I watched all her movies - Her show - my husband I watch all the time....
What wonderful Actress - So cool that you are both related exciting!
I'm working on an SdXL Lora for Donna Reed. Not just an ordinary one. I'm making it so that Donna Reed will appear as an AI character from 2024. Not from the 1940s-1960s exclusively. I've searched through every Donna Reed photo i can find. I've remastered most of the good ones, colorized and 4k quality, etc. This is going to be a very special SDXL lora.
Thank you for posting. I genuinely enjoyed this interview of sorts. Donna Reed was an icon and it was interesting to learn more about her life.
Uploaded 49 seconds ago! Wow!
Excited to watch this, I love hearing you chat no matter what it’s about! :)
Aww thanks friend! I appreciate that! I hope that you enjoy this conversation ☺️🙏🏻💜
Great interview!! It was so good I will watch this again. New to your channel, found it when I searched Donna Reed. Wanting to know more about about her personally. Thank you for sharing ❤❤

Soooooo cool!! Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 This movie holds a special place in my heart and brings all the emotions of spending time with loved ones and enjoying this excellent film.
Aww merry Christmas Nikki! I hope you’ve had a good week! Also, I feel the same way about the film… very nostalgic:) I hope you liked the interview 💜
This is one of my favorite videos ever! It’s a Wonderful Life is my favorite movie.
Aww that’s so awesome to hear Caryn! Thank you for sharing!☺️
So, I've remastered most of the common Donna Reed pictures that are available online. Her photos are typically in very poor condition. Most of them are severely damaged Black and white photos. It was a monumental duty to remaster so many of her photos. I'm doing it to create an sdxl lora, but perhaps i should make a 4k UA-cam video with some of the remastered photos. I'd like fans of Donna Reed to be able to see her photos in never before seen 4k quality.
So cool! You should put it online and let me know when you do please!🥹🙏🏻🤍
This is amazing!!! Wow. So cool!! Loved this ❤ shared with my sister who will love this. We’re ol’ fashioned gals. Thank you for doing this and sharing!! God bless.

Mary was a delight as well! Did she say at the end doesn’t want to stay in Iowa? For some reason, thought she was in NY, think got confused. But so neat if in my home state 🌽
Also I freaked out for a sec, in excitement, because my grandpas sister was in Pennsylvania growing up and was thinking her name was Violet for some reason and same last name as Donna’s penpal. But realized spelling is diff…. ‘say’ at the end instead of ‘sey’ and found out wasn’t a Violet. Ha, but how cool would that have been!!?
So I think she’s Iver the weather…? lol she was in NY though for a while!
Also that would’ve been wayyyy cool if it was your grandma 😭😭😭
@@NikkiPhillippi I totally get being over the weather if that’s the reason haha. Iowa can be pretty harsh as far as Winter weather 🥶 we’d love to be down south in the future. Followed you while in Tennessee, love it there! We go down to the Gulf every year and drive thru TN 🏝️ yes, wouldn’t it have been so cool!? Would’ve been my great Aunt since my Gpa’s sister ☺️
Amazing! I love The Donna Reed show!❤ Merry Christmas!
That’s very cool! It was such a sweet show☺️ merry Christmas to you too Patricia! I hope you’ve had a beautiful week!
Didn’t realize she’s from Iowa and Denison! Pretty sure have been there before, or Mom has talked about. Didn’t know the Donna Reed Museum is there, so cool! I’m a born and raised and still living in Iowa! 🌽 I’m going to watch ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ now 🎄🎶❤️
All fun facts! ☺️Lol my mom is actually from Iowa as well but she met my dad in Wisconsin and he grew up in NY! Wild though that they both had ties there in Iowa… I hope you get to see the museum some day! I would love to! I also hope you had a beautiful Christmas:) thanks for saying hi!
@@NikkiPhillippi super wild!! Hope you had such a beautiful Christmas as well! 🎄❤️💚
Nice!
💜☺️
I really enjoyed this! I remember you mentioned the relation yearsss ago. So cool!
Thanks dude! I’m glad you liked the video!:)
This is a variant of the "slippery slope" argument, but the crux of the matter really is:where do you draw a line that you can defend. You can draw a line with "yes" or "no." Hard to draw a line with a maybe.
Hey Nikki! I hope you see this comment!!!
I can’t remember what video it was, but in one of them you mention Christian insurance. And I was interested! But now I can’t remember which video you spoke about it in! Can you please tell me which video that was because I would like to go back and listen to what you shared about it! Thank you!!!
It’s called Christian Healthcare Ministries! Here’s my link!

I liken a really well made movie to a great piece of musdic. Would you truly only want to hear Beethoven's Ode to Joy just once?
🙏🏻🙌🏻
Totally see the relation. I totally feel like your smile looks like Donna Reid..
That’s so funny! I think the same thing! Genetics are wild
Yes!!!
I don’t see it at all. 😅
@@ExquisiteExtreme That’s how it goes! My sister in law always sees genetic traits in people and sometimes I just don’t see it! Lol
The both of you look like Donna. Thanks for your video. You should have a movie made of Donna's life.
Thank you:) that would be pretty awesome huh?!
Yes!
I agree they both resemble her. A movie of her life would be so very well received, IMHO ♥️♥️
no wonder you are so pretty 🤭 it's nice that she's willing to do this interview w you on youtube
Lol you’re so sweet! Thank you! And yes! I’m so grateful Mary was willing ☺️🙏🏻
This was great! ❤
Thank you so very much breanna! Merry Christmas!
@@NikkiPhillippi merry Christmas! Happy New Year!
Small world! I'm related to Jimmy Stewart :)
That’s wild!!! 😭☺️
Hi Nicki, are you still uploading? I hope you are well?!
Hey Wendy!! Yes I will be! I took a break because I had a really bad knee injury take place at the end of December… I’m talking about it a bit in my next video! Thanks for checking in on me friend:)
Nikki even if you are interviewing family members, you should listen more and be attentive to answers rather than trying to explain the answers in your own words whilst screwing up what your cousin just told you. I also wish you would have let her finish her answers to various questions without injecting how your view the world, yada, yada, yada.
This is a super interesting and rude comment. Lol I got lots of comments and messages from people saying they loved the interview and that I did a great job with the conversation… that being said, I always want to do better so I’ll let your rude comment simmer in my brain for next time. Can you give me an example of a specific point in the internet where I didn’t let her finish her thoughts?
Not worthy of a comment! Fabulous interview!
OMG ❤️💕😍 🙏 😎 you are related to Movie Royalty 👑.. Nollaig Shona from Ireland 🇮🇪
lol movie royalty! i love that and ill take it! lol i hope you had a beautiful christmas! xoxo
No WAY!!!
There truly is a family resemblance! I enjoyed listening to this interview ❤
Genetics are wild! And thank you! I’m so glad to hear that!🙏🏻☺️
You do look like her!
Lol genetics are wild! And thank you!😎☺️
@@NikkiPhillippi I really meant it. Something asbout the eyes and the shape of your face. I think you look even more like her than her daughter.
@@frankbolger3969 haha I know! I can see it in myself too! 😭☺️🙏🏻
