Thank you for posting the photos of Doris Day. Always loved her music and her movies. How nice to see a very senior lady who knows how to age gracefully, instead of the poor old things we normally see wearing too much makeup and not enough clothes.

If you check her bio, she was 92 on 4/3/14--not 90.

I guess you do not read the Globe or the Enquirer tabloids. She is in that often.

About Doris - Doris Day (http://www.dorisday.com/about)

From her website http://www.dorisday.com/# linked above --

Born Doris Mary Ann von Kappelhoff on April 3, 1924, in Cincinnati, Ohio, her parents came from German stock. Her father, Frederick Wilhelm Von Kappelhoff, was a music teacher, choir master and church organist and loved classical music. Her mother, Alma Sophia Welz, on the other hand, was an outgoing woman who enjoyed "hillbilly music." Doris was the youngest of three: she had two brothers, Richard, who died before she was born, and Paul who was a few years older. She was named after silent movie actress Doris Kenyon, whom her mother admired. Growing up in the 1930s Doris was attracted to music and dance, eventually forming part of a dance duo which performed locally until a car she was riding in was struck by a train, crushing her right leg, a severe injury that curtailed her ambition to become a professional dancer.

Doris Day has seen better days. Now, you might ask, "what's her secret to longevity?" The answer: She just takes life one "Day" at a time.

And now you know the rest of the story. Good Day! -Paul Harvey

What difference does it make? If Doris Day wants to be 90 instead of 92, who cares?

Doris Day - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doris_Day)

Check the Wikipedia footnotes.

It is the unofficial biographer and Ancestry.com (census data) that come up with the 1922 birthday.

Most other sources say 1924.

Who filled out the Census and when?

Whatever her age, she doesn't look a day over 89!
