June Havoc may not spring out at everyone as a theatre legend, but in her own way, she is. Aside from her lifelong work, June is the ACTUAL Dainty June from the legendary musical Gypsy and sister of Gypsy Rose Lee. Havoc passed away at the age of 97 of natural causes. Havoc, though never as famous or infamous as her sister, had a long and varied career that stretched all the way back to 1918!!! She began at 6 as a vaudeville star, eloped at 13 with a boy from their act, had a baby, divorced, danced on Broadway and in movies. she had features roles in 26 films and more than a dozen Broadway shows. June Havoc will certainly live on in the theatre forever. R.I.P., June. [source][image]
