Need to expand using only provided facts.
Wait, the prompt says "Write a 180-260 word career overview". If the source material is sparse, I have to be careful not to invent facts to reach the word count. I must stick to the facts.
Let's re-examine the source material for more details:
Born: Hamilton, Ohio, USA.
Birthday: July 15, 1947.
Stage debut: Company (Sondheim).
Tony nomination: Yes.
TV debut: Happy Days (Mitzi).
Prominent TV: Announcer on Sha Na Na.
Other TV: Various parts on Alice.
Reputation: Musical roles.
Credits: 15.
Problem: The source material is very limited. If I strictly follow "Write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported", and the source material only provides about 120 words worth of information, reaching 180 words without "inventing or guessing" is technically impossible unless I repeat or rephrase
