stanley kramer
a popular (but untrue) bit of hollywood lore is that woodward was the first celebrity to receive a star on the hollywood walk of fame. in fact, the original 1,550 stars were created and installed as a unit in 1960; no one star was officially "first". the first star actually completed was director stanley kramer's. the origin of this legend is not known with certainty, but according to johnny grant, the longtime honorary mayor of hollywood, woodward was the first celebrity to agree to pose with her star for photographers, and therefore was singled out in the collective public imagination as the first awardee.
