Maureen O'Hara

I dainty little lass I wasn't. I looked twice my age until I turned 10 or 11.

Charles Laughton signed me to my first movie contract at 17. He later asked my parents if he could adopt me.

The Parent Trap wouldn't have been as special without the remarkable performances by Hayley Mills.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I like a woman that's capable and at the same time feminine. I admire tomboy qualities but with a feminine touch.
