Rita Hayworth @ 90.

Rita Hayworth would have been 90 today and, to celebrate, you might turn to her Wikipedia entry, where you'll find, naturally, the biography and so forth, but also pointers to a fan site, Albin Krebs's 1987 obituary for the New York Times and - most fun of all - Susan Stamberg's 2002 NPR report on the story behind that famous pin-up.

In the German papers, Anke Westphal revisits Only Angels Have Wings for the Berliner Zeitung and Die Zeit offers a photo gallery.
