Rock Hudson died today – 22 years ago

U.S. actor Rock Hudson was born as Roy Harold Scherer, Jr. on November 17, 1925 in Winnetka, Illinois. He said, “I had to overcome the name Rock. If I'd been as hip then as I am now, I would have never consented to be named Rock." [How about Rick?]... Mr. Hudson died in 1985 in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, California.

French surrealist Marcel Duchamp was born as Henri-Robert-Marcel Duchamp on July 28, 1887 in Blainville-Crevon, France. He said, “I have forced myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste." [Hmmm.]... Mr. Duchamp died in 1968 in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France.
