IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
She was also the director and the motivating force behind DramaTech, the Georgia Tech drama society in the early 1960s. Due to Mary Nell's theatrical connections, the members of DramaTech were invited to be escorts for the celebrities at the re-release of "Gone with the Wind" at Lowe's Theater in Atlanta in 1961. Olivia de Havilland was the only survivor of the original stars of the film and she was present for the event.
