- 1Brooke Shields, born on May 31, 1965, in New York City, is an American actress and model who gained worldwide recognition at a young age. Her mother, Teri Shields, was a key figure in her early career, serving as both a manager and a guiding force. Brooke's career took off when she was just 11 months old, modeling for Ivory Soap, marking the beginning of her journey in the entertainment world. However, it was the controversial role in the film Pretty Baby at the age of 12 that put her on the map. Shields navigated the tumultuous waters of fame with grace and perseverance. She continued to act throughout her teenage years, starring in notable films such as The Blue Lagoon and Endless Love. Despite her burgeoning career, she prioritized education and attended Princeton University, where she graduated with a bachelor's degree in French Literature. This move demonstrated her commitment not only to her career but also to personal growth and intellectual development. Beyond her acting career, Shields made significant contributions to the fashion industry. In her early teens, she became the face of Calvin Klein jeans, delivering the famous line, "Nothing comes between me and my Calvins," which revolutionized advertising in the fashion industry. Later in life, Shields turned her focus towards writing, publishing several books including her memoir, There Was A Little Girl, which candidly explores her relationship with her mother.

Like many before her, she made the transition to acting beginning on TV in 1992 episodes of such series as "Freshman Dorm" and "Beverly Hills, 90210."

That same year, she played daughter to Joan Van Ark and Stephen Macht in "Moment of Truth: A Mother's Deception" (NBC), in which Van Ark stuns her family by joining a cult. Langton had her first regular series role in "Extreme" (ABC, 1995), as Sarah Bowen, a waitress turned rescue team member working for James Brolin. She continued in TV-movies with the lead as a woman harassed by a deranged man but whose judge father can do nothing to help her in "Eyes of the Stalker" (NBC, 1995). Langton also played the girlfriend to Jonathan Silverman's "The Single Guy" in several 1995 episodes.

Brooke Hart
06/11/1911Brooke Hart (June 11, 1911 – November 9, 1933) was the eldest son of Alexander Hart, the owner of Leopold Hart and Son Department Store at the southeast corner of Market and Santa Clara Street in downtown San Jose, California. His kidnapping and murder were reported throughout the United States. The subsequent lynching of his alleged murderers, Thomas Harold Thurmond and John M. Holmes, sparked widespread political debate and public horror. The lynchings were carried out by a mob of San Jose citizens in St. James Park across from the Santa Clara County Jail, and were broadcast as a 'live' event by a Los Angeles radio station. The killings of the suspects were tacitly endorsed by the governor of California, James Rolph, Jr., who said he would pardon anyone convicted of the lynching. Scores of reporters, photographers, and newsreel camera operators, along with an estimated 3,000 to 10,000 men, women, and children, were witness to it. When newspapers published photos, identifiable faces were deliberately smudged so that they remained anonymous; the following Monday, local newspapers published 1.2 million copies, twice the normal daily production.This incident is sometimes referred to as "the last lynching in California", though the last California lynching is said to have occurred on January 6, 1947, in Callahan, but the name of the victim has never been released and the event cannot be confirmed in any printed news publications. - 43
