Anne Bancroft's hometown

I got into talking to someone here about our locations under the avatars. The late Anne Bancroft (originally Anne Italiano) has Anne Bancroft Way in Belmont named after her. Two photos of her visiting, in 1960 and 1958. The woman in the second photo is her grandmother.

(I meant the whole borough; I've never lived in Belmont.)

Another one of her. It must have been interesting to be married to Mel Brooks. (He's still alive at 97!)
