I LOVE this mash-up. It is so moving, considering Billie Burke’s life (as you well know).

I adore her in everything, and this photo is stunning.

  Thanks! I thought it was the perfect quote for her and her life. I am glad you picked up on that (but, of course you would).
  
  I adore her in everything, too. Did she ever take a photo that was anything less than sensational? She reminds me of Gladys Cooper in that respect.
