Datebook: February 8 - First Eight Stars Placed on the Hollywood Walk of Fame 53 Years Ago

The legend is that Joanne Woodward was the first to have her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, though some say she was just first on the scene for photographs. The other seven were: Olive Borden, Ronald Colman, Louise Fazenda, Preston Foster, Burt Lancaster, Edward Sedgwick, and Ernest Torrence.

It’s Friday, February 8
