No, no.  Not this Fay Ray . . .

 

Wray, Fay_05

This Fay Wray – who was born on September 15 in 1907.  Although best known for her role in King Kong, Miss Ray had a career in film and television that spanned 57 years.

She appeared other films such as The Countess of Monte Cristo,  Doctor X, and The Most Dangerous Game, and on television in shows such as Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Perry Mason, and Playhouse 90.

Fay Wray died quietly in her sleep on August 8, 2004.  She was 96 years old.  Two days after her death, the lights of the Empire State Building were extinguished for 15 minutes in her memory.

Of course, someone is sporting a tattoo of this lovely lady . . .
