Julie Harris, RIP

I am so saddened to read today about actress Julie Harris' passing at 87. What an enormous career she had! She started acting as a little girl from Michigan and went on to work an entire lifetime, winning  five Tonys, three Emmys, a Grammy, and receiving an Academy Award nomination. She worked right 'til the end, which is so brilliant and meaningful for artists. By then, she had survived breast cancer, a fall that required surgery, and two strokes.
