Understand that this is a project I'd been poking at for quite a while, at least six months or longer. Lillian Gish is my favorite actress, and yet I've only ever seen one movie with her, Whales of August. The hard part was finding appropriate hair, and I still don't feel I did that justice, but this will do.

If you are interested in her, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lillian_Gish and read it. And you will understand why I put really old Hollywood. She had a sister who was also an actress.

Anyway, I know that the dress she is wearing is not quite the right period, but she was an actress.

You will need the mesh for the dress, found here - http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=205801 - otherwise the dress will not show up.

I hope you enjoy this sim, who is based on a woman who's career spanned from before Hollywood was more than a village, to the late 1980's.

PS - the credits on the simspack include Helaene's eye makeup, but its not actually there, since I forgot to put it on her. I strongly recommend her hollywood lashes and any of her eyeshadows in the more naturals ranges [ pale browns, blues or roses ]

Apologies if the colouration isn't perfect but all I could find were black and white photos.
