  Hedda Hopper - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hedda Hopper (May 2, 1885 – February 1, 1966) was an American actress and gossip columnist, whose long-running feud with friend turned arch-rival Louella Parsons became at least as notorious as many of Hopper's columns.
Hopper also had several acting roles during the latter part of her career, including a brief cameo appearance as herself in the movie Sunset Boulevard (1950), and another on a 1955 episode of TV's I Love Lucy.
Hopper remained active as a writer until her death, producing six daily columns and a Sunday column for the Chicago Tribune syndicate, as well as writing countless articles for celebrity magazines such as Photoplay.
