Judy Holliday
* June 21, 1921 † June 6, 1965
Diagnosed with breast cancer in the early 1960s.
Had a mastectomy but the cancer later spread to her throat.
Irene loves films - and writes about them - Classics and Moderns - Hollywood and others, too. As long as it is connected with films - it might appear on this blog..
How ironic you would pick her for today... I just watched Born Yesterday last night! Anyway, a life cut unfortunately short. :(
ReplyDeleteI adore Judy Holliday. Losing her at such a young age was a definite tragedy.
ReplyDeleteQuite a coincidence, Rianna! Hope you enjoyed that film..
ReplyDeletePatti - she will always be one of my top ten all-time favourite actresses.. - top 5 to be specific I think...
I love Judy. Like Rianna said, a life cut too short.
ReplyDeleteAwww, so sad :( Quite a few stars were taken by breast cancer, including my beloved Roz.
ReplyDeleteTrue, Desiree - just btw: of course there will be a post with her name, too..
