Greta Lovisa Gustafsson aka Greta Garbo | 18 September 1905 – 15 April 1990
“The first thing that struck Louise Brooks when she met Garbo was “the perfection of her features and the petal loveliness of her skin.” Though audiences could never see their color, her eyes were a translucent grayish blue. The famous eyelashes were quite real; the nose, slightly large for any other face but hers; the mouth and lips, classically severe and slightly drooping at the corners in a hint of sorrow that would increase with age.” Garbo, By Barry Paris.
Happy 106th Birthday Garbo!
