An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Rock Hudson was born in 1925. He was 6'4" (or was he 6'5"?) and he looked like a movie star, and it didn't take him long to become one. Some of his movies include: Giant, Seconds, and Ice Station Zebra. He appeared in around 70 movies, and starred in a TV series, McMillan & Wife, in the 1970s. He was gay at a time when one couldn't reveal that and continue in movies, and he had to hide that throughout his career (even having a sham marriage in the 1950s), until he got AIDS and could no longer hide it. When he publicly admitted that he had AIDS, it changed the public perception of the disease, and helped gain the funding and research that has led to so many advances in fighting it. AND Doris Day (born Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff) is a legendary singer and actress from 1940s to the 1970s. She was one of the best loved actresses of the 1950s and 1960s. In 1968, her husband and manager passed away, and she discovered he had squandered all her money! She sued a man who her husband had invested with, and she was awarded $22 million, and she never made another movie, but she had "The Doris Day Show" on TV from 1968 to 1973. Since 1980, she has devoted her life to helping animals with the Doris Day Animal League. Some of her movies include: The Man Who Knew Too Much, Pillow Talk (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Love Me or Leave Me, Lover Come Back, The Pajama Game, and many more!
