Classic overview

"Boss Lady," starring Lynn Bari as Gwen F. Allen, aired during "Fireside Theater" and was produced by Jack Wrather and Robert Mann. Bari portrays Gwen, a beautiful and efficient top executive in the male-dominated construction industry. As "Boss Lady" of Glendale Homes, the nation's largest housing developer, she is known as "G.F." While she efficiently manages her company, her primary challenges are finding a general manager who isn't infatuated with her and preventing her father, the figurehead chairman (Nicholas Joy), from mismanaging the business. Gwen believes she's solved the first issue by hiring Jeff Standish (Glenn Langan) as general manager, but her father remains a concern.
