Happy birthday Eileen Evelyn Greer Garson!

(September 29, 1904 – April 6, 1996)

Actors are so lucky. Just think, instead of being in show business we might all have been accountants, struggling with people’s income tax. We might have been auditors or rent collectors. We might have been orthodontists or something like that and working with a rather serious and sad part of life. Instead of that we are the laughter makers and we celebrate the joy of life and spread it around and that’s wonderful and we enjoy it very much.
