She was a friend of my grandfather (Godfrey Bird) so we all got to know her a little bit. She attended many family picnics, always by my grandfather's side. I had the extreme pleasure of interviewing Kate for a film class and, as Michael T. said, all I had to do was point the camera let her talk. Her stories were incredible, and it was incredible whom she knew from Old Hollywood. I especially loved hearing about how her recorded screams were used in dozens of Hollywood films of the 40s and 50s. She even showed me how to do it. Who knew such a horrible sound could come from such a gentle woman.ChrisCornishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15127827003058086023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8470604276410220159.post-15128132381870038522008-05-21T23:37:00.000-04:002008-05-21T23:37:00.000-04:00Thanks for leaving a comment, Michael.
