Harry Worth - Personal Life

Personal Life

Worth was a private person and resisted attempts by publishers to write his biography; it was over 16 years after his death before a book - My Name Is Harry Worth ISBN 0-9551854-0-8 - was written. He was married to dancer Kay Flynn and they had one daughter, Jobyna. Worth died in July 1989, aged 71, of spinal cancer.

Famous quotes related to personal life:

    Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters ‘woman’s peculiar sphere,’ her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.
    Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)
