I met her 65 years ago. She was sitting at a table in The St. Regis Hotel. I was an autograph hound and I went there to see someone else. I was just on the other side of the table and said, "Hedy Lamarr!
You are so beautiful in person. I've only seen you in black and white! My TV is only this big."
She laughed and was happy to me her autograph.
(It was 1959 and i had never seen her in color. She was breathtaking. I liked her warmth and cheerful disposition. I'm the only to give her a tribute on ancientfaces. She deserves to be admired as an inventor.
