My Take
Sally Ann Howes commands my admiration for sheer staying power. A career spanning six decades across film, stage and television, with leading roles in musical theatre on both the West End and Broadway, is no accident of talent alone; it demands relentless discipline. Many remember her warmth in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, but the deeper story is an artist who kept performing at the highest level long after most peers had faded. To sustain that kind of light for sixty years is rare, and following her passing in 2021 I find myself simply wanting to tip my hat.
