Mary Beth Evans

Mary Beth: I don't care if it's daytime, nighttime, movies or Taco Bell. I just want to work.

Mary Beth: (on her family's Christmas tradition) My grandmother once gave me a box of antique dolls that she had, that I've put on my Christmas tree for probably 15 years. When there are big gaps between the branches, I take the bigger dolls and shove them in there. They're little, handmade dolls from Europe that are kind of like rag dolls. They're really cool and fun. I don't know where she got them. I always find spots for them on my tree, even though I really like shiny things. I always look for light reflective ornaments.

Mary Beth: (on husband Michael) He's the greatest. We've been together for a really long time. I met him when I was 19. We've changed so much since then, but we grew together. We have a fabulous relationship. We hardly ever argue because we've done all that. We went through all the horrible things before we got married. Now it's basically smooth sailing. It was love at first sight for both of us. We had a couple of dates and I moved back to Chicago where he was. It was a spur of the moment thing. We knew. And it certainly worked.
