A Tribute to Susan Hayward
Susan Hayward was born in poverty, received her first Oscar nomination after 10 years as an actress, got four more before finally winning one, then died of cancer at the age of 58. She fought every step of the way, and gave us many memorable performances.
A Tribute to Rita Hayworth
A tribute to the star of "Gilda," little Margarita Carmen Cansino, who wasn't really Rita Hayworth, but who played her in the movies.
Introducing Tippi Hedren
Parisian Alain Baron's site is in French, but for those of you who don't speak the language, you'll enjoy the more than 300 high quality photos from "The Birds" and "Marnie," as well as photos from Tippi's screen test.
Sonja Henie Snapshot
Jim Johnson's tribute to the popular actress and figure skating champion is back on line after a five-year absence, and a welcome return it is. It looks great like all Jim's sites and is chock full of information and photos.
A Tribute to Audrey Hepburn
Only Marilyn Monroe has more tribute sites on the Web. Here's my own contribution, plus a comprehensive list of the best sites dedicated to this most-beloved of Hollywood stars.
A Tribute to Katharine Hepburn
There was only one Kate Hepburn. She was one of the few constants left for classic movie fans, but we lost her in June, 2003. A special tribute article.
Judy Holliday Resource Center

A Miriam Hopkins Salute
Meredy's salute to the star of "Becky Sharp" offers a biography, filmography, and images, and is presented in a pop-up format that's a departure for her. Be sure your pop-up killing software is turned off!
Leila Hyams: The Official Website
The green-eyed blonde leading lady of silent and pre-code sound pictures was probably best known for Freaks (1932) and Island of Lost Souls (1933). This site is a wonderful tribute to her, filled with interesting features.
Dorothy Janis: "She Traded Her Sarong For an Apron"

Gloria Jean
Bonnie's site is an unabashed tribute to the lady, born Gloria Jean Schoonover, who was supposed to be the next Deanna Durbin in the early 40s, and who certainly had the voice and the looks for the job. With an introduction by Gloria Jean herself.
Zita Johann
An interesting tribute to the actress who appeared on Broadway in the 20s, 30s, and 40s, and had a brief film career in the 30s. Created by actress Liesl Ehardt, who is related to Ms. Johann and bears a striking resemblance to her, as demonstrated by an animated photo.
Jennifer Jones
An extensive site created by Phillip Oliver, dedicated to the star of Song of Bernadette, with a lengthy biography, filmography, photos, and more.
The Shirley Jones Home Page
The Partridge Family notwithstanding, was any starlet ever cuter than Shirley in Oklahoma and Carousel? Or a better singer? Join her fan club right here if you agree.
