Lynn Fontanne Facts
Appeared by herself in The Man Who Found Himself (1925) and, with husband Alfred Lunt, in Second Youth (1924), The Guardsman (1931) and Stage Door Canteen (1943).

Always refused to say her true age. Even her husband was under the delusion that Lynn Fontanne was 5 years younger than he and he died without ever knowing she was actually older!

She appears on a U.S. 33 cent postage stamp, with Alfred Lunt, which debuted in 1999 in New York City.
