Lonnie Smith
Sharon is Binx’s current secretary, originally from rural Alabama. Binx quickly falls in love with her, as he does with all of his secretaries. She is a fast learner, competent in her work, and firmly draws the line whenever Binx flirts with her. However, she goes along on a Gulf Coast getaway with Binx and doesn’t mind kissing and teasing him on the beach, even though it later turns out that she’s engaged to someone else. She ends up taking over Binx’s branch office when he leaves for medical school.
