Katharine Hepburn Museum Talk

David Heeley and Joan Kramer: In the Company of Katharine Hepburn Over a 16-year period, Joan Kramer and David Heeley maintained a professional and personal relationship with Katharine Hepburn, working together on documentary profiles about Spencer Tracy ('The Spencer Tracy Legacy: A Tribute by Katharine Hepburn'), and Hepburn herself ('Starring Katharine Hepburn' and 'Katharine Hepburn: All About Me'). Join us as Joan and David share personal anecdotes, and show some never-before-seen outtakes of interviews and footage that didn’t make the cut in their finished films. They will also tell stories about their associations with other Hollywood legends such as Fred Astaire, Paul Newman and Frank Sinatra, as documented in their book, In the Company of Legends. Joan and David will sign books after the presentation. About the book In the Company of Legends Beginning with their award-winning profiles of Fred Astaire, Joan Kramer and David Heeley established their reputation for finding the unfindable, persuading the reluctant, and maintaining unique relationships long after the end credits rolled. These unique and intimate stories about the productions, and the personalities involved, are amusing, moving, often revealing, and have never been told before.
