 | | Born with the century in Washington, D.C., Hayes first appeared on stage at age six. |
 | | The shy and quiet future star's career was managed by her mother until she met roistering, boozy Charles MacArthur, whom she wed in 1928, the year the MacArthur-Ben Hecht play, The Front Page, opened on Broadway. |
 | | In her 90th year, however, Hayes is still hopeful for a better world, retired professionally but active in humanitarian causes. |
