Elizabeth Taylor died today at the age of 79. She was part of a Hollywood era that engaged in scandalous behavior but somehow managed to appear glamorous rather than trashy. Even as she aged, the pictures of her showed her with her hair combed, her make-up skillfully applied and still carrying herself with the glamour that she was known for.
A fairly complete article about her career can be found in today's U K Mail Online. An article about her in today's Washington Examiner states:
"In death, she is being heralded for her great beauty, iconic and legandary persona, tireless humanitarian work, and the compassion and optimism she exuded despite decades of physical ailments."
Elizabeth Taylor personified the glamour and success of the movie industry at its most successful. She began as a child star and somehow transitioned to adult roles without an awkward period. She is a lady who will be sorely missed.
