Kate Murtagh (born October 29, 1920) is an American actress, and a native of Los Angeles, California. She has appeared in films including The Night Strangler (1973), Dirty O'Neil (1974), Switchblade Sisters (1975), Farewell, My Lovely (1975), The Car (1977), Doctor Detroit (1983) and Waxwork II: Lost in Time (1992). She has appeared on television in shows including Daniel Boone, My Three Sons, The Munsters, I Dream of Jeannie, The Twilight Zone and Highway to Heaven.[1]
Murtagh is pictured on the front and back covers of the English rock group Supertramp's 1979 multi-platinum recording, Breakfast in America. On the front cover she is depicted as a waitress named "Libby", in front of a depiction of New York City, striking a pose similar to that of the Statue of Liberty, but holding a tall glass of orange juice and a menu rather than a torch and tabula ansata.
Retired from acting since 1999, she is, as of 2010, a resident at the Motion Picture & Television Country House and Hospital, where she still takes classes in improvisation.[2]
