Shee was a great, great woman. Erudite, funny and blessed with the best sense of timing. I wish she could have coached recitatives!

Craig

Love her and love her movies.

Phyllis

very pretty woman

Christine

Gypsy had a son by Otto Preminger. She said she wanted her son to be tough so she picked a genetic father who was the biggest asshole she could find and therefore Otto Preminger. For decades she never told Preminger or her son about the other. At one point when her son kept asking her who his was father was, Gypsy told him, "Shut up and quit asking, it is none of your business". You cant make this stuff up folks.

I didn't know she was ever an actress. She had a daytime tv talk show in San Francisco that my mother used to watch when I was a kid.

William

Gypsy looks like Libby Holman in this shot! She also looks like Lillian Roth - both pre-code performers.

Jim

She used to have a talk show in Boston. One of the originals, very funny, very bright.
