However, the very first Catwoman was Eartha Kitt, the diminutive Afro-American jazz singer who was, from her yoga studies, one hell of a contortionist (she played one on the old Mission Impossible TV series as a guest star - yes, I am showing my age here). She was a feisty and independent woman who got quickly kicked out of Hollywood for not "fitting in" properly. She had considerable talent, but was very abrasive and had little patience with people she considered to be idiots.
My godmother's husband once met Eartha Kitt in the street. He raised his hat to her, so I think we can put him down as a fan.
