Life and career

Youth

Anton attended Yucaipa High School in Yucaipa, California, and graduated in 1968. After high school, Anton attended San Bernardino Valley College. She first experienced fame by winning the nearby Miss Redlands and later the Miss California beauty contests in 1969 and tied as second runner-up in the 1969 Miss America Scholarship Pageant held September 6 that year. She appeared on the game show Password when she was 19 but did not win the game.

Career

By the mid-1970s, Anton developed a following for her Muriel Cigar commercials where she sang, "Let Muriel turn you on / That is my desire / Muriel lights a flame in me / Where there's Muriel smoke, there's fire". Later in the 1970s, Anton appeared approximately 30 times on Merv Griffin's TV show. She was frequently seen and heard in television, print and radio ads for the Perfect Sleeper mattress by Serta. In these ads, she announced her name and sang the company's jingle.

Leaving the nest

Leaving the nest or moving out refers to the notion of a young person moving out of the accommodation provided by their guardian, fosterers or parent. Such a move can be motivated by various factors, including a desire for independence, the discovery of a more viable location and/or practicality.

The age at which young people move out of their previous accommodation has been rising since the turn of the 21st century.

In some cultures, especially Middle Eastern ones, it is not as socially acceptable for a women or girl to leave the home to live by herself without a marriage arrangement.

Moving Out (film)

Moving Out is a 1983 film about a young Italo-Australian adolescent in Melbourne directed by Michael Pattinson.

Pattinson met Jan Sardi, who was a school teacher wanting to move into writing. They discussed making the movie as a 50-minute film and it evolved into a feature. Most of the money was raised privately except for $50,000 from the Australian Film Commission.

The movie was shot over six weeks in various schools in inner Melbourne. It was shot on 16 mm and blown up to 35mm.
