"I always wanted to be an actress. My mother told me to get a job as an elevator operator - because Dorothy Lamour was discovered that way".
  • At just 18 years old was offered a contract with Verve Records by Norman Granz; unfortunately, stage fright daunted her from performing live and she never got beyond the stage of making demos, and the deal eventually lapsed. She was 35 when she released her first album, 'Roll With The Feelin' (1972), and she met Barry Manilow just before he became a major recording star and he produced four tracks with her but Manilow's label, Bell Records, wasn't interested in the material. The album eventually released with Decca Records. In 2009, Kellerman released her second album, 'Sally', it was produced by Grammy Award-winner Val Garay and was released with the Music Force Media Group.
  • The late Jennifer Jones was her mentor and close confidante. They attended group therapy sessions together. Jonathan D. Krane also attended the sessions and met Kellerman in 1978 and they started dating in December of that year. On May 11, 1980, the two married in a private ceremony at Jones' Malibu home. The couple separated for a few months in 1994, reconciled, then separated again in 1997 over Krane's affair with Nastassja Kinski. They ultimately got back together in 1999 and remained a couple until Krane died unexpectedly from a heart attack in August 2016.
  • Very close friends with actor Bud Cort.
  • Very close friend of Robert Altman and his wife Kathryn Reed Altman.
  • Robert Altman initially did not want Kellerman for the part of "Hot Lips Houlihan" in `MASH` 1970 because "she was too attractive" and he wanted unattractive actors.
