Mary McDonough, who may be best known for the role of Erin Walton that she created and played for over a decade on the hits series The Waltons, has concluded a book tour to promote her new memoir, Lessons From the Mountain: What I Learned From Erin Walton.
Recent stops on her tour included the Gospel Music Hall of Fame at DOLLYWOOD, where she visited with music legend and Tony Award nominee Dolly Parton; The Country Tonite Theatre where she visited with Loretta Lynn; and The Opry Shop at The Grand Ole Opry.
In the book, McDonough shares intimate, behind-the-scenes memories of Will Geer, Richard Thomas, her two “moms,” Patricia Neal and Michael Learned, and all the other Walton cast, crew and guest stars.
