TRIVIA:

- In 1978, a poster of Adrienne wearing a tight purple corset was a best-seller. The poster's image later served as a cover photo for her autobiography.
- Made her Broadway debut in _Fiddler on the Roof (1971)_ (qv) in 1968, where she met another young, up-and-coming actress named 'Bette Midler' (qv). "I guess I adopted some of her enthusiasm and hopefully her street smarts," said Barbeau.
- Her roles in _The Fog (1980)_ (qv) and _Escape from New York (1981)_ (qv) were written specifically with her in mind.
- Worked as a New York city go-go dancer in a Mafia-run nightclub from 1964-1967 while breaking in on Broadway. She quit after the owner decided to turn the place into a bikini bar.
- The winner of the _The Cannonball Run (1981)_ (qv), she also won the heart of her co-start, 'Burt Reynolds (I)' (qv), who was then at the height of his popularity.
- Is of French and Armenian ancestry.
- Her role in _Halloween (2007)_ (qv), was ultimately cut from the final finished film.
