Doris Day is slightly intertwined in history with the crazed Charles Manson and the Manson Family. Doris' son, Terry Melcher, was a former record producer in the `60's, most notably producing 2 of The Byrds' albums, who were the hottest group in the USA at the time. Charles Manson had asked Terry to audition him and listen to his songs. Terry listened but wasn't impressed. This infuriated Manson, who put him on the top of his hit list, and when he finally flipped his lid, he and his "family" went to Melcher's house on Cielo Dr. in L.A. to kill him. Unfortunately, Melcher had rented the house months ago to Roman Polanski and his wife, Sharon Tate. While Roman was away, Sharon had a party the night Charlie arrived, and thinking these were Melcher's friends, Manson's "family" butchered Sharon and her friends in retaliation.
Turned down the role of Mrs. Robinson in Graduate, The (1967). The role went to Anne Bancroft.
