Johnny Simmons

Eve Arden would have been 101 today. I don't pretend to remember her as much as I should, her career did span 60 years. In fact I often forget she's contributed to classics from Stage Door to Grease to Anatomy of a Murder. Still, I suppose it's okay that I remember her most for the wisecracking Ida in Mildred Pierce. A short performance, but not at all inadequate. Happy Birthday.
