Linda Kaye Henning (born September 16, 1944 in California) [1] is an American actress and singer most notable for starring in the 1960s sitcom Petticoat Junction.

Henning's most notable role was as Betty Jo Bradley in the CBS series Petticoat Junction, which ran from 1963 until 1970.

[2] She was only one of three cast members, along with Edgar Buchanan and Frank Cady, to remain throughout the show's entire run and appeared in all but three of the 222 episodes.

In some episodes in later years, Henning and her television sisters (played by Meredith MacRae and Lori Saunders) sang in a trio, and she often sang duets with costar and future husband Mike Minor, who played Steve Elliott.

[citation needed] In Season 1, the Bradley sisters were joined by a friend, played by Sheila Kuehl, in a band called the Ladybugs, which was created to compete with Beatlemania.
