Sally Anne Struthers (born July 28, 1947) is an American actress, voice artist, spokeswoman and activist best known in the United States for her roles as Gloria Stivic, the daughter of Archie and Edith Bunker (played by Carroll O'Connor and Jean Stapleton) on All in the Family, for which she won two Emmy awards, and as Babette on Gilmore Girls. She was the voice of Charlene Sinclair on the ABC sitcom Dinosaurs and Rebecca Cunningham on the Disney animated series TaleSpin.
Sally Anne Struthers was born on July 28, 1947 in Portland, Oregon, and attended Grant High School. She is one of two children. She has a sister, Sue. Their parents are Margaret Caroline (née Jernes) and Robert Alden Struthers, a surgeon, who left the family when Sally was 9 or 10 years old. Her maternal grandparents were Norwegian immigrants. Struthers married William C. Rader, a psychiatrist on December 18, 1977; they divorced on January 19, 1983. They have one child.
Struthers moved quickly into stardom between the late 1960s and early 1970s. In Five Easy Pieces (1970) she was cast opposite Jack Nicholson in a small yet memorable role, but achieved fame as Gloria Stivic on the 1970s sitcom, All in the Family.
