Jackson Hole, Wyo.-Dawn Wells will never escape the notoriety she first gained in 1964 as Mary Ann Summers on TV’s “Gilligan’s Island.” But that is not something that bothers her very much.
In fact, the fourth generation Nevada native who holds a BFA in theater has maintained her gratitude for the campy show that made her character a household name. Playing the somewhat naïve, yet wholesome all-American girl next door, Wells – though educated and worldly – identified with her character’s set of old-fashioned values and farm girl work ethic.
