“My family’s from sturdy stock,” she said at the time. “My grandmother was running around in the hot San Fernando Valley sun at 72, hauling big bags of rabbit feed and chicken feed around. I think I’ve got some of that … And as is true for most people, I think how I look and feel is some combination of what I do and what I don’t do.”
