I have a picture of my sister-in-law in a distinctly Shirley Temple pose. I do wonder if that was deliberate. Connie In our local paper they have a full page on Shirley Temple, my name sake. My sister wanted to name me Shirley Temple, that's how I got my name Shirley. Shirley Temple Black turns 85 tomorrow, she's won 2 academy awards, one miniature "juvenile" Oscar in 1934, and one full size Lifetime Achievement award in 1985. She was the Rose Parade grand marshal at age ten in 1939, At the age of ten, her weekly salary was $1,250. It also says she had 56 corkscrew curls on her head. Her first marriage to John Agar [the war hero] she was 17 and there were 500 guests at the wedding. At the ripe old age of 22, she announced her retirement from films. When the song "On The Good Ship Lollipop" debuted in 1934, they sold 500,000 copies of the music. Sales of Shirley Temple dolls, by 1941 went to 45 million dollars. I have a few of Shirley Temples movies, on VHS, and when my granddaughter was around 5, she loved them, I had told her I was named after her, she even liked them better.

This reminds me of the Dionne Quintuplets from Canada. Anyone know what ever happened to them?
