Hi Will.

No, I don't believe that the man in the picture is Jack Kelly but I could be wrong. :)

The Ireland Fund of Monaco Literary Award in Memory of Princess Grace


Colum McCann receives Ireland Fund of Monaco Literary Award

His Serene Highness Prince Albert of Monaco will present “The Ireland Fund of Monaco Literary Award in Memory of Princess Grace” to Irish author Colum McCann during the Ireland Fund of Monaco gala dinner at the Hôtel de Paris, Monte-Carlo, on Saturday 5th October 2002. The €15,000 prize has been created to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the death of Princess Grace (Nov. 1929-Sept. 1982).

Born in Dublin in 1965, Colum McCann was educated at Rathmines College of Commerce in that city. He left Ireland in 1986 and spent two years touring the USA. After having worked as a journalist in America and Ireland, he settled in New York in 1998 and now divides his time between there and Dublin. McCann has already won two Hennessy Prizes and a Rooney Prize.

His works include the short stories Fishing the Sloe Black River (1994), filmed in 1995; the novels Songsdogs (1995), later adapted to screen; and This Side of Brightness (1998) about the Irish and Afro-American builders of New York’s subways, long-listed for the Booker Prize. His collection of one novella and two short stories published in 2000—Everything in This Country Must—deals with teenagers caught up in the Northern Irish ‘Troubles’, and was shortlisted for the IMPAC Prize.

McCann was chosen for The Ireland Fund of Monaco Literary Award in Memory of Princess Grace by a selection committee in Dublin that included Mr Seamus Heaney (Nobel Prize for Literature) Senator Maurice Hayes (Seanad Éireann, Chairman of The Ireland Funds) and Mr A. W. B. Vincent (President of The Ireland Fund of Monaco).

Princess Grace’s paternal grandfather, John Henry Kelly, left his home in Killann (County Mayo) at the end of the nineteenth century, settled in the USA, and founded in Philadelphia what later became one of the country’s most successful building enterprises. After the state visit to Ireland by Their Serene Highnesses Prince Rainier and Princess Grace in 1961, the Princess started to collect Irish books; it is that collection, including many rare editions, that has formed the core of The Princess Grace Irish Library in Monaco since its inauguration in November 1984.

The Ireland Fund of Monaco, under the High Patronage of His Serene Highness Prince Rainier III, was founded by Mr A W B Vincent in October 1998. Information: Mr A. W. B. Vincent, Monaco: Tel +377 97 70 84 06 – Fax +377 93 50 29.

Notice: On 4th-6th October, coinciding with the Ireland Fund Gala, the Princess Grace Irish Library is holding a symposium on “The Irish Book Lover” in commemoration of the journal of that name and in honour of leading Irish book men and women, past and present. See further details.

* I'm still looking for pictures of this visit*

The Official State visit of Prince Rainier of Monaco brings to the White House former American actress and his wife, Princess Grace. The princess attempted to use the occasion, as she knew the entire world would be watching, to try to start a new fashion trend as Jackie did with the 'pill box hat'. It backfired, as the white fabric headcovering she wore looked terrible. Princess Grace was part of a practical joke played on JFK when he was still a Senator, and was recovering from a back operation in a New York hospital. Grace Kelly was still an actress, and one that JFK greatly admired. Grace was dressed as a night nurse and came into JFK's room in the middle of the night and woke him up. She began to ask him how he felt, but JFK was speechless, and never said a word. Grace quietly left the room. The following morning he thought the entire episode was a dream, and those who were in on it, including Jackie, had a hard time convincing him that it was real. Years later, he still questioned it, and at this official meeting he asked Grace about it, and for the first time knew it was not a dream.

Princess Grace told newsmen that she is forsaking her film career to concentrate on being a wife and mother.

In that pic Camille kind of reminds me of Grace when she was about her same age and she even had her hair like Camille's.

Other look alikes:

Princess Caroline and Charlotte
Princess Charlotte and Princess Caroline
Andrea and Pierre sometimes look identical to Stefano

Princess Stephanie looks quite high strung, very nervous. Poor kid, maybe she hasn't been able to relax since she was 17? Hyper-vigilant goes with post-trauma.

She seems to look like that in most of her pictures -- not as a child, but especially in the more recent adult pictures. You don't see it?
