Happy 95th (Not 93rd) B-day, Doris Day!
Doris Day turns 95 today – something that came as a surprise even to her, as she had until this weekend believed herself to be about to turn 93. The former film star has long pegged her age to a 1924 birth date but a copy of her birth certificate, obtained from Ohio’s Office of Vital Statistics, settles the issue. Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff, her pre-fame name, was born on 3 April 1922. Her parents were Alma and William Kappelhoff of Cincinnati. An actress goes her whole life with a fake age: that’s never happened before.
