“The night of the Academy Awards, I dressed in a black lace and gray peau-de-soie gown dressed by Irene and was ministered by Louise, my hairdresser. Eddie Rubin, my dear friend and publicist, also helped prepare me for the ordeal by bolstering my morale. I wish deep inside me that I didn’t have to be a part of this parade. However, I bit my tongue and pulled up my long silk stockings, along with my courage.” – Ginger: My Story.
