Dowd, a gentle lush whose best friend is Harvey, a 6-ft.-plus talking rabbit that only Elwood could see and hear but two generations of Americans adored; of a heart attack; in Denver. A reporter for the Rocky Mountain News before she switched to playwriting, Chase was notably unsuccessful until Harvey suddenly brought her fame and fortune with its 1,775 Broadway performances and its remake as a movie starring Jimmy...
