Someone mentioned on this site that Helen Shipman, who played the leading role in the Broadway musical IRENE (as well as many other Broadway shows) was the mother of Brian Keith, the late TV and movie actor. This is incorrect. Brian Keith's mother was HELENA Shipman from Aberdeen, Washington. She was a stage actor at one time, but never acheived the stardom of Helen Shipman who was from Pennsylvania and married Broadway/movie/radio star, Edward Pawley. I know this to be true, because I was a friend of Edward and Helen Pawley (now deceased). IMDb and other sites had it wrong, but are making corrections based upon the proof I presented to them. Thank you....
