REMEMBERING KATHARINE HEPBURN, THE CROTON CONNECTION

Who died this date in 2003--and who got her "big break" in Croton...via the Croton River Playhouse in 1932....

Read all about it here:  http://bit.ly/2t4jx6w

Click on the photo--courtesy of our friends at European Filmstar Postcards--to see a Dutch postcard featuring Hepburn in the George Cukor 1933 production of Little Women--also with Joan Bennett, Francis Dee, Jean Parker and Spring Byington.
