Shirley Temple Black (born Shirley Jane Temple)  
(April 23, 1928 – February 10, 2014)

On February 10, 2014, Shirley Temple Black, who as a child in
the 1930s became one of Hollywood’s most successful stars,
died at her Woodside,
California
, home at age 85. The plucky,
curly-haired performer sang, danced and acted in dozens of
films by the time she was a teen; as an adult, she gave up
making movies and served as a U.S. diplomat
 

The cause of death, according to her death certificate released
on March 3, 2014, was
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Temple was a lifelong cigarette smoker but avoided
displaying her habit in public because she did not want to set
a bad example for her fans.

‘’BEATLEMANIA’’ ARRIVED ON THIS DAY IN 1964

See the source image

On February 7, 1964, Pan Am Yankee Clipper flight 101 from London Heathrow lands at New York’s Kennedy Airport—and “Beatlemania” arrived. It was the first visit to the United States by the Beatles, a
British rock-and-roll quartet that had just scored its first No. 1 U.S. 
hit six days before with “I Want to Hold Your Hand.”

At Kennedy, the “Fab Four”—dressed in mod suits and sporting their trademark pudding bowl haircuts—were greeted by 3,000 screaming
fans who caused a near riot when the boys stepped off their plane
and onto American soil.


Two days later, Paul McCartney, age 21, Ringo Starr, 23, John
Lennon
, 23, and George Harrison, 20, made their first appearance
on the Ed Sullivan Show.
