Olivia de Havilland

Olivia de Havilland (July 1, 1916-July 25, 2020) was perhaps the last remaining star of Hollywood’s Golden Era at 104. Born in Tokyo, the daughter of a British patent attorney, de Havilland moved to California as a child with her niece, Joan Fontaine, after her parents divorced. While at school, she was cast in the theater production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” by Max Reinhardt, and then hired to repeat her part in the Warner Bros. movie.
