Gloria Swanson, now there was a Class Act. In the late 70s while walking along Fifth Avenue, I spotted Miss Swanson walking as well - unaccompanied. Fortunately I had my autograph book with me (I've long since retired it). I approached her very respectfully and asked her to sign. Not only was she the epitome of graciousness, but we wound up talking on the busy street corner for close to a half hour. No one else even blinked. I still have the autograph which reads "to Jeanette, a joyous heart". Lovely simply lovely.
