Within two months she was offered her first position: dancing with Danny Kaye on The Danny Kaye Show. The actress says "I am able to use my experience for dancing and singing in a variety of ways." "The mental discipline gained from that is wonderful for actors." O'Toole's first role in My Three Sons was followed by parts in Gunsmoke and The Mod Squad. She was also on Hawaii Five-O, The Mod Squad, The Partridge Family.
