#2 "First Lady of the American Theater", and she was a Conservative Republican



A charmer at the early age of 18

A looker in her twenties

And she had Gams

But a real lady

Oscar performance in "A Farewell to Arms"

The queen of the stage played Queen Victoria

By the end of the performance Queen Victoria had aged 6 decades.

Helen with hubby and the future "Book em Danno"

At 90 years young

Helen Hayes was the first person to ever win a Grammy, an Oscar, a Tony and Emmy in competitive categories.
