Ann-Margret: As a person, I am still many times fragile and vulnerable; it’s just the way I am. My parents were like that, too. It does present challenges for me. I can be knocked over by a feather when I’m really down although I must say that when I’m on stage, it’s different.
Ann-Margret: One of my nicknames is ‘Slugger,’ referring to the fact that even when I get knocked down, I get back up again.
Ann-Margret: The critics had an image of me, and they wouldn't accept any other... I was a cartoon character. A joke.
