Her father, was an Air Force colonel who later became a real-estate agent. Lucius already had three children with a previous wife when he met Brandy in 1954 and married her impetuously in Tijuana. Lucius and Brandy had been divorced for some time before she was born. Her brother Buddy explains Jodie's conception as the result of a brief re-encounter between their parents some time after the divorce. Jodie's mother supported the family by working for a film producer, and later in public relations. Both Jodie's parents briefly married other people. |
Jodie's brother Lucius "Buddy" Foster was a child-star, most well-known in his television roles as "Johnny Dow" in 17 episodes of "Hondo" in 1967; and as "Mike Jones" in 29 episodes of Mayberry, R.F.D. from 1968 to 1971. | Jodie's brother Lucius "Buddy" Foster was a child-star, most well-known in his television roles as "Johnny Dow" in 17 episodes of "Hondo" in 1967; and as "Mike Jones" in 29 episodes of Mayberry, R.F.D. from 1968 to 1971. | ||

When Buddy Foster's book on his sister was released, ''Entertainment Weekly'' did a review dated 1997, in part stating that Lucius was then living, aged 75. Lucius was apparently yet living as late as 2003, when his name appears online in a few comments that he evidently posted to various forums. | When Buddy Foster's book on his sister was released, ''Entertainment Weekly'' did a review dated 1997, in part stating that Lucius was then living, aged 75.
