- ... that Laura Robinson (pictured) invented Canada's best selling board game before becoming a successful actress and television producer? Source: "By 1986, Balderdash had knocked Trivial Pursuit from the top of Canada's toy charts." https://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/os-xpm-1988-06-14-0040450261-story.html

- Comment: 1. She uses just "Laura Robinson" for 90% of her work. But our Laura Robinson article is for a different (also Canadian!) person. She did use Laura McKinlay Robinson and McKinlay Robinson for a few roles, and I was reluctant to have Laura Robinson (actress, game designer, producer, writer) as a title for obvious reasons, so I'm using Laura McKinlay Robinson for the article; but is it OK if we leave out the middle name in the hook and use a pipe like this?
- 2. The image is waiting for OTRS approval. We should get it, she sent it in herself.
- 3. No shortage of possible quirky hooks, from being compared to Jessica Rabbit, to co-publishing a dice game about penis size, to co-authoring Chicken Soup for the Soul books, if you really don't like this one for whatever reason. But I do think Balderdash and acting are the main points that make her notable.

- Interesting life, on plenty of good sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. The image is stunning and will hopefully make license and being chosen. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:53, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
- The image license has been approved - looks like someone thought this picture of a building was better though? --GRuban (talk) 16:15, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
