For seven seasons, Sally Struthers played Archie and Edith Bunker’s daughter Gloria Stivic on the groundbreaking series All in the Family. The role made her famous, but for Struthers, it also became confining. By the late 1970s, she was ready to move on and prove that she was more than just Gloria.
According to MeTV, Struthers told the Chicago Tribune that she was “itching to leave” the series by 1978. “I was young, energetic. I figured I could go off and do anything,” she said.
