Katharine Hepburn's Life is Subject of Lecture at Canton Library

With a stage and film career that spanned six decades, Katharine Hepburn is an American icon. On Saturday, April 6, 2 pm, at the Canton Public Library, Natalie Belanger, Program Manager at the Connecticut Historical Society, presents a program called "Katharine Hepburn: From Hartford to Hollywood.”

Born and raised in Connecticut, Hepburn had a career in stage, film and television that reflected the changing role of women in broader society. The story of her life-long ties to Connecticut (and connections to Canton) offers a complete picture of how Hepburn became the woman and the star she was.
