The ultimate in Circus Royalty
1963, the last year Beatty was still in good health, looking half his age, and working like he was 20. In '64, in Philadelphia, when I joined out, he was seeing the top high-society doctors Grace Kelly and Prince Ranier sent him to, but they missed diagnosing his ailments as cancer. That August, he had his first cancer surgery, and gave his return in '65 a valiant try. But in May, he collapsed after a matinee, and Jane Beatty took him home to Ventura, where he died on July 19.
