Shelley Winters Discusses Her Midlife Career.
Shelley Winters. With two Oscars and well over 100 films to her credit, Winters is a star in the classic Hollywood mode. But she is almost as well known for her off-screen adventures and irrepressible life style that made her a staple in the gossip columns. She is best known for her roles in the films "A Place in the Sun," "Night of the Hunter," "Diary of Anne Frank" and "A Patch of Blue." Off-screen, Winters went through a succession of tempestuous marriages, but was also a highly visible participant in the careers of Adlai Stevenson and John Kennedy, and in the civil rights movement. She second volume of Shelley Winters autobiography has just been published. It's titled Shelley II: The Middle of My Century. (Interview with Sedge Thomson)
