In addition to recording heretofore untold biographical details of her entire phenomenal career and her famous relationships with such men as Spencer Tracy and Howard Hughes, Kate Remembered also tells the amusing, often emotional story of one of the most touching friendships in her final years. She also remained one of the most private of all the public figures of her time.In 1983 - at the age of seventy-five, her career cresting - the four-time Academy Award winner opened the door to biographer A.

Scott Berg's appalling book reminds me of the girls in school whose pretense was soon uncovered. Using Hepburn as a vehicle for self promotio. Kevin Graves said A Charming Peek Into The life of an Icon. I really must take issue with the reviewer who said this book is as much about A. Scott Berg as it is Katharine Hepburn.
