Orson Welles once called her timeless.
With a sultry and distinctive voice, Eartha Kitt established herself early on as a great singer and actress.
She started performing professionally in the 1940s, and made several hit recordings in the 1950s and ”60s. Her most famous recording is a popular Christmas tune…
Baby Boomers will recall her role as Catwoman on the TV series “Batman.”
Younger audiences will recognize her voice from the voiceover work she did on several Disney productions.
I never got to actually meet Eartha Kitt in person, but we talked on the phone one day in 2001, about her book Rejuvenate! It’s Never Too Llate.
So here now, from 2001, Eartha Kitt.
Eartha Kitt died on Christmas Day 2008, just days before her 82nd birthday.
