79-year-old ex-casting director Penny Perry files age discrimination lawsuit against Hallmark, alleging wrongful termination due to age bias.

Penny Perry, a 79-year-old former casting director, has filed an age discrimination lawsuit against Hallmark, alleging wrongful termination after being told not to hire "old" talent. She claims Hallmark's VP of programming, Lisa Hamilton Daly, referred to actresses Holly Robinson Peete and Lacey Chabert as "too old" for leading roles. Hallmark has denied the allegations, asserting that both actresses remain part of their programming.
