Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Asia Pacific World Actress June Havoc dies at 97 Reuters - Tuesday, March 30 Send IM Story Print By Duane Byrge LOS ANGELES - June Havoc, a stage, movie and TV actress who started in vaudeville at age 2 and was the younger sister of burlesque queen Gypsy Rose Lee, died Sunday at her home in Stamford, Conn. She was 97. Havoc and Lee were the focus of the 1959 musical "Gypsy," based on the latter's best-selling memoir "Gypsy." Starring Ethel Merman as Mama Rose, the show was a Broadway hit. But it led to a long-term fallout between the siblings because of Havoc's displeasure with her sister's fictionalized portrayal of her. They remained antagonistic until Lee was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer in 1970, when they made amends. Along with her sister, Havoc was pushed into a vaudeville career by their headstrong stage mother. Billed as Baby June, she had bit parts as a toddler in silent comedy shorts and performed in early Hal Roach comedies starring Harold Lloyd. Although less famous than her notorious stripper sister, she carved out a career on Broadway and motion pictures, mostly in musicals and comedies. She made her Main Stem debut in "Forbidden Melody" and was most widely acclaimed for her performance as Gladys in the 1940 production of Rodgers and Hart's "Pal Joey," opposite Gene Kelly and Van Johnson. She won the Donaldson Award for the hit musical "Mexican Hayride" in 1944. Havoc was nominated for a Tony Award in 1964 for directing "Marathon 33," based on her early experiences as a marathon dancer in Depression-era dance contests. Havoc appeared in "Gentleman's Agreement" with Gregory Peck but mostly performed in B-level movies including "Four Jacks and a Jill," "Powder Town" and "Sing Your Worries Away," all in 1942. During the late '40s and early '50s, she had roles in such films as "The Story of Molly X" and "Lady Possessed" with James Mason. Other film credits include "The Iron Curtain," "Once a Thief" and "Follow the Sun." After "Lady Possessed" in 1952, she took a quarter-century break from the big screen, returning in "The Private Files of J. Edgar Hoover" and later in "Can't Stop the Music and "A Return to Salem's Lot." On TV, she starred in the CBS series "Willy" in the 1954-55 season, playing a small-town lawyer, and hosted a syndicated talk show, "The June Havoc Show/More Havoc," in 1964-65. In 1986, she was a cast member on the soap "Search for Tomorrow" and four years later had a brief regular role on "General Hospital." More recently, she guest-starred on "Murder: She Wrote." She also appeared on such shows as "Fireside Theater," "Lux Video Theater," "Studio One," "Robert Montgomery Presents," "The United States Steel Hour," "The Untouchables" and "Burke's Law." In 1985, she performed "An Unexpected Evening With June Havoc" in London. Born Ellen Evangeline Hovick on November 8, 1913, in Vancouver, she was a child phenomenon by age 5. A charismatic high-kicker, she was featured in the vaudeville act "Dainty June and Her Newsboys." In 1918, she appeared in the silent film "Hey There!" She also wrote two autobiographies: "Early Havoc" and "More Havoc." Havoc was married three times, to William Spier, Donald S. Gibbs and Bobby Reed, with whom she had a child, April, who went on to become an actress who used the name April Kent.
