Which cast member ended up being hired after sending a letter to Carol Burnett at age 17?
Answer Vicki Lawrence
After Lawrence entered the local Miss Fireball of Inglewood contest, a newspaper article remarked on her physical resemblance to Burnett. Lawrence sent Burnett a letter, along with the article. Obviously intrigued, Burnett proceeded to look Lawrence's family up in the phone book and get herself an invitation to the contest. Lawrence won, and Burnett herself came to the stage to crown her teenage doppelgänger.
