Ahhh...this makes me sad.
I saw an interview with her several years ago. She was a very down-to-earth person. Growing up extremely poor kept her humble. In the interview she recalled how she was warned that taking a role in a family based TV series would create a typecast. At the time she dismissed those warnings but admitted her role as Mrs. Brady did indeed affect her ability to find work later on.
Ironically, I lived through my own personal Brady Bunch family experience during the show's heyday, and it was much different.

I did to a degree as well and yeah, not the same experience at all.
