“I remember Kate as someone who defied all the stereotypes. She was in her late 70s when I photographed her, but her remarkable vitality was quite evident. Shunning her private trailer, she had her makeup and hair people set her up outside in the sunshine or when we were working below ground in a remote NYC subway station, right down on the platform with the rest of the crew. A few weeks after we finished shooting, I received an envelope with Katharine Hepburn’s name on the return address. Perhaps a letter from her secretary asking me to send some photos? I opened the letter to find that Kate had sent me a personal, handwritten thank you note!” - Photographer John Seakwood (2014 - Attached is the photo of the note also) ⁣

Although remembered as being tough, those who worked with Katharine always tell of how gracious she was to crew members, including photographer Mr. Seakwood - Always be nice to your fellow man. ⁣
