I met her around 1963 when she brought her one-woman show with Wesley Addy to Shaare Emeth Temple, a challenging envitonnment. The show was intelligent, classy and compelling and she was outstanding. I was a newspaper editor and got to meet her after the show and she was difficult, standoffish and cold. Dealing with show business people regularly, I had never run into that before and did not know what to make of it. But it still was an honor to meet her, Ado Annie and am Oscar winner

She's still working in a couple of new films in 2010 and 2011, one of which is with 90 year old Mickey Rooney, for a combined age of 184, that surely must be a record?
@mickh18 - thanks for uploading this tremendous set of photos. I am a big fan of Turner Classic Movies and have learned to recognise Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyck and Greer Garson. Now I can add Celeste Holm to that list ! I hope TCM broadcasts Gentlemen's Agreement soon, I love the acting of John Garfield.
...and yes, i adore YouTube because it's a bit like life, you can have a chance to find some real rare gems, like this one, amongst a pile of rubbish.
about her first works, She has an incredible icy glance (that makes me melt...) but weirdly i've been always watching to her like the charming, witt, emancipate, somehow un-conventional, loyal, friendly, smart, but still classy girl. She had to deal with real giants so she was often in as supporting role but i allways found myself to exclame "Hey what's wrong with these guys?, is she the one i'd adore!"
