Actor

BIOGRAPHY

Eileen Saki is an actress who was the final and longest-running actress to play Rosie, proprietor of Rosies Bar in the television series M*A*S*H. She also had a small but memorable role in the season 5 premiere episode as the head Madam of a coquetteish group of prostitutes.The switching of actresses in the role of Rosie mimics the actual handing over of the real-life Rosies Bar during the Korean War from mother to daughter. Alan Alda became aware of this when he received a letter from the real Rosie Jr. about the incident in the early 1980s, a copy of which is available in the book The Last Days of M*A*S*H by Alan and Arlene Alda.
