1 | My sister was beautiful and clever - and ruthless. My mother was endearing and adorable - and lethal. They were the same person. I was the fool of the family. The one who thought I really was loved for me, for myself. |
2 | I was never in an amateur contest in my life, like the opening scene in Gypsy (1962). That hurt me so. |
3 | I wasn't the beauty mother dreamed of. When I finally left, I said, "Look at me, Mom. I'm not dainty. I'm not a baby. It's all gone. Where do I go now? Because I am a gawky 12-year-old with no education. I'm not cute". The numbers I had learned to do weren't the style of the day. Let vaudeville die. I didn't want to die with it. But she was convinced vaudeville would come back. And I said, "I know I'm only 12 years old, but there is something out there better than this". |
4 | Everybody died. My sister, my mother, my husband. Almost all at the same time. I have no family nearby, I don't have anyone, I guess, to depend on. It turns out I've always been the one. People think you're so self-sufficient if you're good at what you do. It gets you the title of a strong woman and being one can be many things. It attracts people who need strength. I'm not against that. Everything good feeds back. |
5 | I wish my sister [Gypsy Rose Lee] hadn't died at an early age. That she could have had the exquisite joy of growing old. It's just not fair to be cheated out of that. |
6 | I admire education so much. Intelligence, erudition. But this is just where I want to be. I have respect for skill, for craft, the way the vaudevillians did. I adored Liberace. He and my sister drew attention to themselves with sequins and rhinestones, which I love in the right role. But it is a very small club, the people I want to be associated with. The life I want is not special in any sense of the word. The approval I've worked for is in very small print. I drive a Honda, I don't wear jewelry. I guess, in that way, I'm like my mother. |

1 | June Havoc (1912-2010, age 97) began working professionally at the age of 2. By the time "Baby June" was 4, she already had made numerous film appearances. By 1919, at age 7, she was earning $1,500 a week as a top child star on the vaudeville circuit. |
2 | "And I hadn't a clue what I was doing," June Havoc said in a 1980 interview with the Los Angeles Times. "When the registrar for my wedding certificate application - without looking up, asked me, 'Do you have VD?' I answered brightly: 'Of course!' ". |
3 | In 1986, Havoc wrote to The Los Angeles Times' obituary editor, listing some of her accomplishments. "Please take this information into your obituary files (for your eventual use)," she wrote. "These are the facts on this life and I'm a stickler for facts." In the letter, Havoc noted that she had guest starred on "The Paper Chase" and appeared with the Village People in "Can't Stop the Music" (1980). Among other highlights, she included: a Tony Award nomination for best director for her 1963 staging of "Marathon '33" - a play she wrote based on her novel "Early Havoc" - and her 1978 restoration of Cannon Crossing, a pre-Civil War village and business enclave in Wilton, Conn. She made no mention of her burlesque-star sister, her three marriages or her daughter, April Hyde, who did some acting as April Kent. |
4 | She was estranged from her sister, Gypsy Rose, for many years but the two reconciled before Gypsy Rose's death, in 1970, from lung cancer. |
5 | She was one of just three Hollywood Republicans, the others being Richard Conte and Paul Henreid, to fight the blacklist. |
6 | Her father was of Norwegian descent. Her mother had British Isles and German ancestry. |
7 | She now lives in Wilton, Connecticut. [1990] |
8 | She has no grave, upon her death she was cremated and by request her ashes were scattered in the garden of her beloved Connecticut home. |
9 | Was an active member of The First Presbyterian Church in Stamford, Connecticut. |
10 | Was close friends with Celeste Holm, Jack Haley, Martha Scott, Betty Grable, Betty Hutton, Van Johnson, and Dennis Day. |
11 | Was a lifelong supporter of the Republican party. |
12 | She was nominated for a 1975 Joseph Jefferson Award for Best Guest Artist for her performance in the play, "Twigs", at the Pheasant Run Theatre in Chicago, Illinois. |
13 | Mother Rose died of colon cancer in 1954. With their mother gone, June and sister Gypsy Rose Lee decided they could write about their lives without risking a lawsuit. Lee's memoirs, entitled "Gypsy", were published in 1957, and later evolved into the smash Broadway musical starring Ethel Merman as Mama Rose. |
14 | Mother of April Kent, who died in 1998. |
15 | Was nominated for Broadway's 1964 Tony Award as Best Director (Dramatic) for "Marathon '33." |
16 | Aunt of Erik Lee Preminger. |
17 | "Baby" June Havoc was very unhappy over the content of her sister Gypsy Rose Lee's musical memoir "Gypsy," which became a monstrous hit on Broadway in the 1950s. The estrangement between the two lasted over a decade and only ended when Gypsy told June she was dying of cancer and wanted to make amends. |
18 | She once danced in a marathon that lasted four months, with she and her partner winning second place and splitting the $100 prize after 3,000 hours of dancing. |
19 | Sister of Gypsy Rose Lee. |
