Today, July 16th, is the legendary Ginger Roger's birthday. She would be 103 years old. She acted, she sang, and she wore high heels and complicated evening gowns while seemingly floating on air - making the very difficult dances with Fred Astaire seem completely effortless. She was part of the small group of actresses that defined the glamour age of Hollywood. In honor of her special day, I think that using her own words would be the best way to pay tribute to the beautiful, unforgettable Ginger Rogers.
"My faith in humanity leads me to believe that people are looking for something more elevating than the sordid details of the intimate aspects of one's personal life."
