Career
Davis appeared on ABC's Jukebox Jury from 1953 to 1954.
Charmaine "Schultzy" Schultz, 1959–1959. Davis' first television success was as Charmaine "Schultzy" Schultz in The Bob Cummings Show. She auditioned for the role because her friend's boyfriend was a casting director and recommended her for the role. She received the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series twice out of four candidates for this role.
On January 23, 1958, she appeared on The Ford Show, Starring Tennessee Ernie Ford, as a guest star. Davis made history by becoming a Hollywood Walk of Fame on February 9, 1960. Davis also concentrated on theater during this period. She appeared in The Matchmaker, a national touring company of the Thornton Wilder, in 1958, costarring Bob Cummings Show cast member Lyle Talbot, and she was also cast in the Broadway production Once Upon a Mattress.
Davis appeared as Miss Wilson, a physical education specialist at a private girls' academy in John Forsythe's single-season NBC sitcom The John Forsythe Show, from 1965 to 1966.
Davis was known for her appearances in television commercials for the Ford Motor Company, especially for the mid-sized Ford Fairlane models during the 1960s and 1970s. Davis was also featured in Minute Rice commercials in Canada until the mid-1980s. During this time she appeared as a stand-up comedian; before Sherwood Schwartz was able to play her in The Brady Bunch, Paramount Studios had to buy her out of a multi-week booking in Seattle, she also performed as a stand-up comedian.
Alice Nelson, Davis' housekeeper, appeared in The Brady Bunch television series from 1969 to 1974. She appeared in numerous Brady Bunch television films, including The Brady Girls Get Married (1981) and A Very Brady Christmas (1988). Alice Nelson appeared in two short-lived Brady Bunch spin-off television series The Brady Brides (1981) and The Bradys (1990), both of which lasted only six episodes. In 1995, she made a cameo appearance as a truck driver named "Schultzy," a reference to her time on The Bob Cummings Show in The Brady Bunch Movie. Davis' Alice's Brady Bunch Cookbook, which contained Brady Bunch inspired recipes, was published in 1994. The book also includes recipes from cast members.
Davis returned to theater in the early 1990s. She appeared in both the Broadway and Old Lace productions, as well as a world tour of Crazy for You.
Davis never stopped acting; in her later years she was the celebrity spokeswoman in several Shake'n Bake franchises, and she later appeared in several Swiffer disposable mop commercials. She has appeared in a number of Brady Bunch reunion shows, most recently TV Land's The Brady Bunch 35th Anniversary Reunion Special: Brady Bunch After All These Years. On the 5th annual TV Land Awards, the Brady Bunch was named the TV Land Pop Culture Award on April 22, 2007. Davis and other cast members accepted the award, and she was given a standing ovation.
