== Synopsis == [[File:Diahann carroll julia 1969.JPG|thumb|left|150px|Julia and Corey at home.]] In ''Julia'', Carroll played widowed single mother, Julia Baker (her husband, Army Capt. Baker, an [[O-1 Bird Dog]] artillery spotter pilot had been shot down in [[Vietnam War|Vietnam]]), who was a [[nurse]] in a doctor's office at a large [[aerospace manufacturer|aerospace company]]. The doctor, Morton Chegley, was played by [[Lloyd Nolan]], and Julia's romantic interests by [[Paul Winfield]] and [[Fred Williamson]]. Julia's son, Corey (Marc Copage) was approximately six to nine years old during the series run. He had barely known his father before he died. Corey's best friend was Earl J. Waggedorn, whom Corey almost always addressed and referred to precisely by his full name, though other characters (particularly his mother) would refer to him simply as Earl. The Waggedorns lived downstairs in the same apartment building, with father, police officer Leonard (Hank Brandt), stay-at-home mother Marie (Betty Beaird), and two sons, Earl and an infant whose first name is never revealed. The first two seasons included nurse Hannah Yarby ([[Lurene Tuttle]]), who left to be married at the beginning of the third season, just as the clinic's manager, Brockmeyer, ordered downsizing β and removal of minorities from employment. (Chegley let Yarby go but kept Julia in defiance of the manager's edict. She was also kept after Chegley reminded Brockmeyer that such a move was a violation of the [[Civil Rights Act of 1964|Civil Rights Act]], which was just five years old at that point.) The second and third season included Richard (Richard Steele), a boy some one or two years older than Corey. Chegley's uncle, Dr. Norton Chegley (also played by Lloyd Nolan), made three appearances. The series' first episode was filmed in October 1967, a year before the pilot was picked up. {{clear|left}}
