Year of Ann Dvorak: Day 273<\/h3>\n

\"photo<\/p>\n

Yesterday, my dear friend Darin<\/a> treated me and my daughter to a matinee of the live\u00c2\u00a0Wizard of Oz<\/strong> at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre. After the show, we could not help but make the quick trip over to Ann Dvorak’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame<\/a>, located\u00c2\u00a0on the north side of the street, between Vine & Ivar.<\/p>\n

I’ve been asked a few times if Ann was present for her dedication ceremony. The answer would be no – because there never was a celebration just for her. Ann was actually included in the inaugural 1,500+ stars that were laid between 1960\/61. I’m not sure what Ann thought of the honor, though her mother, Anna Lehr, was impressed and made mention of her daughter’s “GOLD star” in a letter to a family member.<\/p>\n

With a career spanning twenty years (forty-five, counting the three movies she made as a kid), and comprised of over fifty films, I think it’s safe to say that Ann deserves her place on Hollywood Blvd., next to the adult theater that boasts “100’s of beautiful girls and 3 ugly ones” (just how disappointed are tourists when they visit Hollywood?). \u00c2\u00a0Also, I am very relieved to not have to launch a campaign and raise $30,000 to get Ann a star.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
