Katharine Hepburn
Katharine Hepburn was an American actress known for her fierce wit and independence. She starred in some of Hollywood’s greatest classics, including Little Women (), Bringing Up Baby (), The African Queen (), and The Lion in Winter (). Katharine was also known for her androgynous fashion and assertive attitude.
Hepburn&#;s early career was mixed — while she won an Academy Award for Best Actress for her third film, Morning Glory (), she also encountered a series of setbacks that led to her being considered “box office poison” for her participation in several commercial failures like Spitfire (), The Short-lived Minister () and especially after the disastrous flop of Bringing up Baby () where she first starred opposite of Cary Grant .
She rekindled her career when she bought the rights to a play that she was starring in, The Philadelphia Story.

Is Scotty Bowers Telling the Correctness About Hepburn and Tracy?
Is Scotty Bowers, the legendary Hollywood pimp telling the truth about Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn? Here's a confirming story
In Scotty Bowers came out with a book called Full Service which described his experiences as one of the greatest pimps in Hollywood history.

The book is Scotty's life story written with a co-author. He has not hesitated to identify names in frank and shocking stories about his sexual adventures with both male and female stars and celebrities. He also connected how he procured women for people like Desi Arnaz (Lucille hated him for it). In the book he recounts how he set up men and women for bisexual orgies with the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. Many famous film stars were outed as his clients and sexual partners; Tyrone Power, Cary Grant, Randolph Scott and even Bob Hope.
After having a hectic schedule because of my dissertation, I have returned to my love of reading. I have finished reading another biography and I thought, considering that my Hedy Lamarr review was popular, that I would make this a more regular thing. The biography under review is one on Katharine Hepburn, specifically ‘Kate: the Woman Who was Katharine Hepburn’ by William J. Mann.
This biography was published in , three years after Katharine Hepburn died at age 96 on June 29th Coming in at over pages, the biography promises to look into the ‘real’ woman behind ‘Kate’. It sets out to dissect the legendary stories surrounding Hepburn, how they were created, why, and what actually was happening at the time. It sets out to comprehend how Hepburn moulded herself into an iconic American figure, just like the Statue of Liberty.
The manual itself is made up of a preface, the biographical section of the book and then the acknowledgments, notes and the index. The preface is helpful to setting up the biography, however, by the time you finalize the book you practically forget what was writt

As a minor, Hepburn attended several suffragist demonstrations with her mother, who was the director of the Connecticut Chick Suffrage Association and a strong advocate of birth control.

However, a year after she and her then-husband bought the rowhouse at East 49th Avenue in , she caught the attention of Hollywood with her lead show in the play The Warrior’s Husband () at the Morosco Theater (demolished). As a result, she landed a starring role in the George Cukor-directed film A Bill of Divorcement ().
