Katharine Hepburn's Wardrobe



Last Thursday on 104.9 FM, Jean Druesedow, director of the Kent State Museum, chatted with Jacqueline Gerber, WCLV's "Queen of the Morn," on the "First Program" about the museum's 25th anniversary and the Katharine Hepburn exhibit opening in October. The exhibit consists of movie and stage clothes, including 17 identical pairs of beige trousers, given to the museum by Miss Hepburn's estate.

If you didn't get to hear the interview last Thursday, you can hear it, plus an additional "web extra" interview exclusively for WCLV, at wclv.com. In the "web extra" segment, Jean Druesedow explains Katharine Hepburn's influence on American fashion, and what happened when Coco Chanel found out that Hepburn was to play her on stage.

Go to www.wclv.com; scroll down until you see the Hepburn photo. Click there and you will find both interviews. Please let me know what you think. Post your comments below.
