In Praise of Virginia McCaskey
Virginia McCaskey is 99 years old. Let’s put that number in perspective.
– When Virginia was born, sound was still four years away from being introduced to motion pictures.
– Virginia was born two months before the first ever publication of Time Magazine, in March 1923.
– Across the country, other icons were born that year. The Hollywood Sign (reading “Hollywoodland”) was erected in LA. Yankee Stadium and the boardwalk at Coney Island opened in NYC. The Walt Disney Company was founded.
