Katherine Hepburn was also a Feminist before the Feminist movement began. She was a staunch Roosevelt supporter and a dedicated Democrat until she "...could not rationalize America's use of the atomic bomb or the growing lack of detente between Russia and the United States...." Hepburn ended up switching to a more progressive party and candidate.
Hope this won't spoil your admiration for this remarkable, intelligent, and independent American woman.
I know of her politics. I am a fan of strong intelligent independent pretty women. Fortunately, most of them are conservative these days. And I am sure she would be glad that it was Republicans who reached detente with China, and Republicans who ended the cold war. Ronald Reagan was a Dem, but as he said, he didn't leave the party, the party left him. The party of JFK was the party of Reagan.
