Huh? Anna Marie "Patty" Duke (born December 14, 1946) is an Academy Award-, three-time Emmy Award- and two-time Golden Globe Award-winning American actress of stage and film. On Tuesday, she'll step into the role of the congenially manipulative and casually cruel Madame Morrible in "Wicked" at the Orpheum Theatre, in San Francisco, California.

Duke's first major role was playing Helen Keller in the Broadway play The Miracle Worker.
