Louella Parsons

Louella Rose Oettinger Parsons (born August 6, 1881 in Freeport, Illinois, died December 9, 1972 in Santa Monica, California) was a Hollywood gossip columnist who became almost as famous as the people about whom she wrote. Arch-rival of Hedda Hopper. Parsons wrote her final article in 1964.

• The birth date needs to be qualified, as Parsons claimed, probably inaccurately, that she was born in 1893.
