Tuesday April 12, 2005
The Funny Site of the Day -- "Marie Rudisill is the Fruitcake Lady," explains her biographical notes from NBC. "She's a 93-year-old Floridian with a unique history. For starters, she's the aunt of famed American novelist Truman Capote. In fact, she lived with Truman during his childhood and helped raise him during his formative years in Alabama and New York City." She's also an author and a fruitcake recipe led to her debut on Jay Leno's program.
Whether dispensing dessert tips or "down-to-earth, no nonsense advice," Marie Rudisill has become a memorable comic visitor to "The Tonight Show." NBC presents a collection of her "Ask the Fruitcake Lady" video segments, containing a bit of adult content.

Would like to find a DVD or VCR tape with the entire body of work of the fruitcake lady.
I too, would love to have a DVD compiled of the Fruit Lady “Interviews”..They are a hoot…
I also would love so much to have a DVD or VCR tape of her work. I love her!! I could watch her for hours. Love and peace to her family and friends. I know she will GREATLY be missed.
I loved the Fruitcake Lady from the very first Video that I saw of her. I laughed and laughed and sent it to all of my friends. She reminded me so much of a very special friend that passed away years ago. She’s really got some spunk!! A friend just forwarded me another one of her videos’s and I would love to have every one she ever made. If someone knows how to get a copy of all of them, please post it on this site.
that goes for me too. would LOVE to have a complete set of her Q and A’s.
Also, for those who don’t know, she is the fruitcake Aunt in Truman Capote’s “The Christmas Memory”. A beautiful Christmas story of learning lifes lessons while making fuitcake with his Aunt - the fruitcake lady.
Perhaps we could get in touch with someone from the Tonight Show and ask them to make a DVD of the Fruitcake Lady. I would have loved to seen her one the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson!!
PLEASE PLEASE create a video/dvd of ALL OF HER VIDEOS.. this woman is a blessing we all need this in our world right now, please share ALL of her video segments.. she will be missed beyond words…………
I Love her too! Would love to have a collection of her DVD/Videos. When they become available sign me up!
I Love her too! I would love to have her on dvd when they come available.
Man…the funniest thing I have ever seen. Is there a DVD w/the Fruitcake Lady? I would love to have one…
The fruitcake lady reminds me of my mother who passed away 10 years ago. Very Italian and very blunt. I would like any an all tapes of the Fruitcake lady. She is hilarious.
My mom taped her on Leno.How she can make the saddest person laugh.Please let me know if ever there’s a tape of this funny funny lady.They are rolling with laughter above.
Seems to me alot of people would pay for a DVD or VCR of the fruitcake lady. But there seems to be no addressing the issue with Jay Leno Show people.
I know I would love one. I saw my first clip today.
