This legendary, beloved star and friend of TCM celebrates her 102nd birthday on Independence Day. I’m so grateful to TCM for sharing her films with millions of fans around the world.
She won 2 Best Actress Oscars (for To Each His Own and The Heiress) and lived to be 104 years old. She’s best remembered for playing Scarlett O’Hara’s sister Melanie Hamilton in Gone With the Wind and for successfully suing her studio, Warner Brothers, to end an unfair contract.
Here are links to her Wikipedia bio and the lawsuit dispute:

Greetings fellow Austen fans!
I just purchased S & S from an online bookseller and was so excited to read. Sadly, the font size is too small.
Any recommendations for a better edition, publisher easier on the eyes? I prefer the book format to kindle.
Thanks.
This cute little girl survived a difficult childhood, WW2, and became a beloved actress and humanitarian.
