Posted by Slobokan @ 03:40 · 108 words · print
Ruth Ford, a film and stage actress who turned her Manhattan apartment in the Dakota into a salon as she became something of a muse to writers, artists and musicians, died at her home on Wednesday. She was 98.
Her lawyer, Karin Gustafson, confirmed her death and her age; Ms. Ford had long insisted she was four years younger.
…
She moved to New York and, in the early 1940s, married the actor Peter van Eyck. The marriage soon ended in divorce. Her second husband, Mr. Scott, died in 1965. Ms. Ford is survived by a daughter, Shelly Scott of Santa Barbara, Calif.; a granddaughter; and two great-grandchildren.
