Judy Stuewe of Forest Park appeared in the Don and Marie Osmond Holiday Special in 1975. This special holiday show was a preview to the Donny and Marie Show, which officially debuted in January of 1976. This ABC special also featured Bob Hope, Kate Smith and Paul Lind as guest stars.
Leading up to her appearance, Judy Stuewe had completed a 10-night run with Holiday on Ice in Indianapolis, then was flown to Hollywood for the taping of the special. She brought a swell of local pride, as an alumna of Forest Park elementary schools, Proviso East and Triton College and as a well-known skating instructor at the Michael Kirby Rinks and the Oakton Center of the Park Ridge Park District.
