I had done 25 motion pictures prior to The Partridge Family and nobody knew my name.

   

After I won the Oscar, my salary doubled, my friends tripled, my children became more popular at school, my butcher made a pass at me, and my maid hit me up for a raise.

I wanted some family structure and stability, and that's what The Partridge Family afforded me, not only financially but in the fact that I could be at home with my kids.

   

I feel very fortunate to have been associated with people such as Rodgers and Hammerstein. I think they were geniuses of their time.
