But Effie was just one of dozens of roles she played on hundreds of programs during the Golden Age of Radio. Tuttle could be heard on Dragnet, Suspense, and The Whistler, and in comedies like The Great Gildersleeve and The Red Skelton Show.
After radio, Tuttle continued to work on screen throughout the golden age of television. Here she is in “The Case of the Artful Dodger” from Perry Mason in 1959.
