Elizabeth Ray
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Elizabeth Ray (born Betty Lou Ray on 14 May 1943 in Marshall, North Carolina [1]) was the central figure in a scandal that ended the career of U.S. Rep. Wayne Hays (D-Ohio).
The Washington Post reported that Ray had been on the payroll of a committee run by Hays for two years as a clerk-secretary. During that time, she admitted, her actual job duties were providing Congressman Hays sexual favors: "I can't type, I can't file, I can't even answer the phone."
After the scandal broke, a book appeared in her name, entitled “The Washington Fringe Benefit”; she posed for Playboy several times, and tried acting and stand-up comedy.
