Roundup of editorials on Katharine Hepburn.

The following editorial appeared in the Orlando Sentinel on Tuesday, July 1:
THE HEPBURN LEGEND
Throughout her long life, actress Katharine Hepburn never stopped speaking her mind. In an era when women were expected to be demure and deferential, she rose to stardom dressing like a man and being assertive, opinionated and independent. She didn't hide her intelligence or backbone.
Whether they agreed with her or not, most fans admired Ms. Hepburn's fearless honesty. She was who she was _ and she made no apologies. She inspired generations of women to be true to themselves and aim high.
Today, Hollywood is full of prima donnas who glory in outrageous outspokenness and think stardom is all about shock value. Ms. Hepburn, who passed away Sunday at 96, probably didn't relate. She had another quality that made her a true legend _ class.
