Jean Elizabeth Hill (November 15, 1946-August 21, 2013) was a teacher, model, and actress, most notable as Grizelda Brown in Desperate Living. Hill is considered a Dreamlander (John Waters' regular ensemble of cast members). After earning a degree from Coppin State University, she tutored special education students at School 181 in Baltimore. Known as John Waters' "discovery", he was seeking an overweight African-American woman to play in his 1977 film Desperate Living. Waters' doorman referred her to him. In Waters' book ''Shock Value'', he describes her as "my dream-come-true, four hundred pounds of raw talent". In the mid-1980s she joined fellow Dreamlander Edith Massey in becoming a greeting card model, making her an icon of the gay community. ==Death== Jean Hill died on August 21, 2013 in Baltimore from renal failure at the age of 66. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jean Hill (actress)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
