Great Katharine Hepburn Quote
I‘m a personality as well as an actress. Show me an actress who isn’t a personality, and you’ll show me a woman who isn’t a star. - Katharine Hepburn

The Katharine Hepburn We Never Knew
There’s a new bio about Katharine Hepburn out that’s supposedly something else. Every review I’ve read has been glowing and I haven’t seen it given less than 5 stars, yet. Below is a link to a review on USA Today.com. Personally, I can’t wait to get my hands on it - it’s been way too long since I’ve read a really, really good Hollywood bio….going through withdrawal.

Katharine Hepburn’s Style
Katharine Hepburn was recognized by MSN Lifestyle as the biggest influence on women’s fashion in the ’30s and ’40s.
Her fashion legacy was one of breaking rules, pushing the boundaries and finding your own signature style - even if it seems a little radical. She’s remembered as the first woman in Hollywood to wear pants…which, at the time, was about as radical as it gets.

Katharine Hepburn
Katharine Houghton Hepburn was born on May 12, 1907, in Hartford, Connecticut. Her mother, Katharine, was known for being a very strong willed and intelligent feminist and suffragist. Her father, Thomas, was a doctor. Katharine would later credit her parents for contributing to her strong sense of independence. The traits attributed to her mother were, in fact, very much attributed to her as well.
When she was 14, Katharine found her much beloved brother Tom hanging by the neck in their aunt’s attic. They had been visiting her when the accident or suicide happened….it was never really proved whether it was, in fact, a suicide or if Tom had been pulling a stunt that went horribly wrong. Most of the family seemed to believe the latter, since he was just 16. Needless to say, his death and the fact that she discovered him, haunted her for years.
