Talk:Carol Grace

Her names

• Both the IMDB and IBD say her birth surname was “Marcus”, but this is unlikely because her mother only married Charlie Marcus when Carol was 8 years old. So, she was born “Carol Grace <something>”, then at age 8 she became “Carol Grace Marcus”.

• In 1942 she appeared on stage in “Across the Board on Tomorrow Morning and Talking to You” as “Carol Marcus”. All her later stage appearances were as “Carol Grace”. As “Carol Grace” she also published “The Secret in the Daisy” (1955) and made 2 feature films, “Gangster Story” (1960) and “Mickie and Nicky” (1976).

• But it seems she was still known as “Carol Marcus” in her private life. At least until she married William Saroyan, then she became “Carol Saroyan”, or “Carol Marcus Saroyan”.

• Then she married Walter Matthau and became “Carol Matthau”, under which name she published “Among the Porcupines” (1992). She was also referred to in the media as “Carol Saroyan Matthau”, but I doubt she used this formulation herself as she divorced Saroyan - twice.

• I've made some edits along these lines. -- JackofOz (talk) 23:54, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Nurse Carol Grace

Nurse Carol Grace is a fictional character on the HBO prison series Oz. Although Nurse Grace does not actually appear in the series until season 6, she had been working at Oz for quite some as she was hired before Dr. Nathan arrived.

Season 6

Nurse Grace killed Carlos Martinez and when Dr. Nathan came to see what was going on, Grace claimed she was busy doing paperwork and did not hear the code. Dr. Nathan fired Nurse Grace but then brought her back a short time later. Initially, it was believed that Martinez died from inhaling toxins while in solitary but his autopsy revealed he had been murdered. Dave Brass was considered the prime suspect since it was Martinez who sliced his Achille's tendon. Later, Enrique Morales tells Warden Glynn that he is afriad of Nurse Grace and that Glynn should check her background but Glynn thinks it is just the medication he is on as the thought of a man like Morales being afraid of a frail middle aged woman is laughable. However, when Morales is later suffocated to death, Glynn decides to conduct a background check on Nurse Grace and discovers that she was fired from two different hospitals prior to working in Oz due to the fact that several patients had died on her watch. Glynn tells Grace that she will be taken to the homocide unit and she attempts to flee but is stopped by a CO whom she tried to fight but is subdued. She calls Dr. Nathah a "spanish cunt" before being taken away.

Citation Needed

Please be judicious, and reluctant to use the "citation needed" tag. I found this {{citation needed|date=January 2010}} tag in the article over 7 years after it was inserted. At least two of the references present in the article gave the citation wanted. I do not know when the references were put into the article, but either the "citation needed" tag was inserted carelessly, or the person providing the references was careless in not removing the tag.

With events which were either not published anywhere or events which happened in earlier years in other language spaces there is hardly a possibility to provide a citation. Wikipedia's rules were made for the internet age, and what happened before does not fit the mould. 2001:8003:A070:7F00:187B:58CA:3673:A2DA (talk) 02:30, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
