My Take
June Havoc lived a life that reads like its own screenplay. A Vancouver-born child of vaudeville who clawed her way up under a famously demanding stage mother, she went on to Broadway, Hollywood, directing and even memoir. That arc, from exploited child performer to self-directing artist and author, speaks to extraordinary resilience. I am drawn to people who outlast their early circumstances and reinvent themselves, and she did it repeatedly across nearly a century of life. Her Walk of Fame star is the easy honour to cite, but her real achievement was sheer creative endurance and reinvention.
