He often wrote great stories about Doris - they just don't make them like Army anymore! I got to know him over the years and he was a wonderful man with integrity...God rest his soul - he will be missed.

After reading Mary Anne's notice about Army Archer, I remembered that I had photos of Doris and Army together from the Doris Day Animal League meeting in Carmel in 1990. It was a 3-day event so that's why you may see different outfits on Army or Doris from the same conference.

Holly is the woman who actually was the acting director of the Animal League and very important in the organization.

When you get to the 4 photos, double click on each one to enlarge and see captions. I think the photos of Doris are darling but in at least one photo her nose is red - I think due to a make up problem.

Lauren, thanks so much for posting those great photos. However, that's not Army Archerd with our gal. I believe it's fellow animal advocate, the late Cleveland Amory. But whatever, Doris sure looks cute at that event!

This is a great one - thank you.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!!!!! My bad!!!!!!

Thanks for correcting me!!!

Well, enjoy the photos of Doris anyway!

Amory....Archard....Archard....Amory. You can see how an old woman like me can get mixed up.

I love seeing pictures of Doris like that. Not posed. Just Doris in real life, in action.
Thank you for posting these!!

Lauren, thank you so much for posting these great photos of Doris!

If you are like me, you love, love, love the casual photos of Doris more than the posed. I have numerous casual photos of Doris that I'll post here or incorporate in my little movies so that Doris fans can enjoy her loveliness for years to come.

I'll try to get them posted soon while I'm in the mood and before I decide to disappear for another 2 years! LOL!

Even in these candid, unposed pictures, could her gorgeous smile be any more radiant??
