She was always an actress. At the age of 16 she did summer stock with Liza on the Kennedy Compound in Palm Beach.  Through her manager and first husband, the late, great Walter Greenfiels, she became Betty Buckley's stand-in for everything Ms. Buckley did up to HBO's "OZ."  Lavinia's favorite stand-in job was the film "Carrie."  Now she is at New York's legendary  The Stonewall Inn on Wednesday nights from 11pm to 12:20. According to Lavinia, "it is low rent, but it is a job."
