Fun Facts

People often wonder – was that her real voice. Yes it was. That is actually how she talked.

And fans wonder to this day what she passed away from at a friend’s house in Princeton. Fans don’t know, her agent doesn’t know, her family doesn’t know and even Georgia doesn’t know because she was member of Christian Science. And the first rule of Christian Science is they maintain that Christian Science prayer is most effective against illness and disease when not combined with medicine.

Katharine Hepburn

popular name: Katharine Hepburn

date_of_death: June 29, 2003

age: 96

cause_of_death: Cardiac arrest

claim_to_fame: Show Business

best_know_for: Katharine Hepburn was an American actress whose career as a Hollywood leading lady spanned over six decades. She was known for her headstrong independence, spirited personality, and outspokenness, cultivating a screen persona that matched this public image, and regularly playing strong-willed, sophisticated women. Her work was in a range of genres, from screwball comedy to literary drama, and earned her various accolades, including four Academy Awards for Best Actress—a record for any performer. After a brief lull in her early career, Hepburn continued to be articulate and outspoken, transitioning to more mature roles in films as varied as "Summertime," "Suddenly Last Summer," and, notably, 1962's "Long Day's Journey into Night," considered by many her dramatic high water mark. Hepburn challenged herself in the latter half of her life as she tackled Shakespearean stage productions and a range of literary roles. She found a niche playing mature, independent, and sometimes unmarried women such as in The African Queen (1951), a persona the public embraced. Hepburn received three more Academy Awards for her performances in Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967), The Lion in Winter (1968), and On Golden Pond (1981). In the 1970s, she began appearing in television films, which later became her focus. She made her final screen appearance at the age of 87. After a period of inactivity and ill health, Hepburn died in 2003 at the age of 96.

Burt Lancaster

popular name: Burt Lancaster

date_of_death: October 20, 1994

age: 80

cause_of_death: Heart attack

claim_to_fame: Show Business

best_know_for: Burt Lancaster was a failed circus performer when in 1945 (according to the sort of Hollywood legend of which one should probably believe only half) he chanced to share an elevator ride with a theatrical producer who assumed that someone so rugged, virile and good-looking could only be an actor and who consequently invited him to audition for a leading role in a Broadway play, The Sound of Hunting. By virtue of his performance, he was almost at once cast opposite Ava Gardner in Robert Siodmak's The Killers (1946), a tight, atmospheric, low-budget thriller that established Lancaster's reputation in Hollywood. Lancaster's career spanned 45 years and encompassed more than 70 movies, 1 Academy Award and a ranking of #19 in The American Film Institute list of the greatest male stars of classic Hollywood cinema.
