Susan Hubley, who was originally named Susan Hubley, acquired the name “Season” due to her childhood persona. The inspiration for this name arose when she was only 12 years old.
According to Peoples magazine published on 19th February 1979, Hubley states that one of her friends jokingly nicknamed her the name “Season.” This was based on her nature of changing her attitude from time to time.

After breezing through the auditions, she landed the lead role in a television movie titled Bobbie Jo & The Big Apple Goodtime Band. However, she eventually relocated to Los Angeles due to a pneumonia diagnosis caused by the chilly climate in New York. During her time there, she resided in a 1965 Ford Galaxy with a friend.
After waiting patiently, Season’s persistence in the film industry finally paid off when she was chosen to be part of the cast for the movie The Lolly-Madonna War X*X*X.
