Jan Miner Facts
For many years Miner and her husband called a rambling cottage in Bethel, Connecticut their country home. Retiring to Heritage Village in nearby Southbury, Connecticut for several years, it was there where Merrell predeceased her. Ironically Miner returned to her long-time hometown of Bethel where she was admitted to a convalescent facility and remained until her death.

She became a TV icon to generations of viewers as Madge, the wisecracking manicurist for Palmolive Dishwashing Detergent. She played this role for 27 years, one of the longest ongoing product endorsement relationships in TV history.

Co-starred as Mary Wesley on the syndicated radio show "Boston Blackie" (1945-1949).
