Sad news of the death of June Havoc, who died on the weekend at the venerable age of 97. June who? you may ask...
Miss Havoc was better-known as "Baby June" during her vaudeville years as the the sister of Gypsy Rose Lee - the inspiration for one of the best musicals of all time, Gypsy. Unaffected by her sister's notoriety, she later went on to appear in a number of movies in the 1940s and 50s such as Four Jacks and a Jill, My Sister Eileen, and Gentleman's Agreement, and on Broadway in Pal Joey.
Here is Miss Havoc herself in a "well-known" role as The Girl With The Big Sombrero:
And here is the trailer for the original and particularly magnificent movie Gypsy:
