We particularly appreciate the fact that both the strengths and the weaknesses have been highlighted, so we can see what we’re doing right, as well as which elements need work.

Happy Birthday: Sarah Hyland

sarahhyland Sarah Hyland

Born: November 24, 1990 in New York City, New York, USA

You know, every woman has issues with her body. I’m sure Adriana Lima has something she doesn’t like, which is ridiculous! But it’s just how women are. It’s one of those things where you have to love yourself for who you are; as long as you’re healthy, that’s all that matters. Girls deal with pressure differently. Some days I’m depressed, and other days I’m completely fine. The only advice I have for young women is to cherish the body you have now; when I was 18, I don’t think I did.

Born: November 24, 1965 in Kincardine, Fife, Scotland, UK

I spend plenty of time in London and it doesn’t scare me, but it’s a lonely place, even if you’ve got friends there. My job takes me all around the world, meeting lots of interesting people. But I think if I couldn’t get home, if I couldn’t get back to what I consider my real life I’d be frightened.

Happy Birthday: Geraldine Fitzgerald (1913–2005)

WILDsound Festival's avatarWILDsound Festival

geraldinefitzgerald.jpgGeraldine Fitzgerald (1913–2005)

Born: November 24, 1913 in Greystones, County Wicklow, Ireland
Died: July 17, 2005 (age 91) in Upper East Side, Manhattan, New York City, New York, USA

Married to:
Stuart Scheftel (10 September 1946 – 20 January 1994) (his death) (1 child)
Edward Lindsay-Hogg (November 1936 – 30 August 1946) (divorced) (1 child)

Was a redhead when she first went to Hollywood, but her hair photographed dark, so people have always assumed she was a brunette. In her only early color film, Wilson (1944), her hair was turned brown for her portrayal of Edith Wilson, so the public never saw her natural red hair.
