    3. There was an actress named Helen Modjeska many years ago. But I think she was Polish. She was the Sarah Bernhart of her time. Audiences sat through entire "Hamlet" performances in POLISH here in America. Her house is in Modjeska Canyon. It was closed due to earthquake damage when I was there last. It's off Silverado Canyon Road in Orange County near Tustin. She owned the whole canyon and planted olive trees much too close together. They are still there and it's the shadiest spot in California.
