Description

Doris Day (1922-2019) was a budding dancer until a car accident ended her career at age 15. Her love for music was genetic, however, and soon she concentrated on voice lessons. Though most remembered as a film and television star, she received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award as well as the Presidential Medal of Freedom. She remained devoted to her work in animal welfare, through the Doris Day Animal Foundation, until shortly before her death.
