Hollywood veteran actress Kim Novak has been diagnosed with breast cancer, but doctors says her prospects for recovery are good, her manager was quoted as saying yesterday.
The 77-year-old actress, who starred in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1958 classic Vertigo with Jimmy Stewart, maintains her health by working out three times a week and horse-riding, Sue Cameron said.
The cancer “was caught early by a routine yearly mammogram and (she) is undergoing treatment,” Ms Cameron told the Hollywood Reporter, the industry daily, cited on its online edition.
“All her doctors say she is in fantastic physical shape and should recover very well.”
Ms Novak, who lives with her husband raising llamas in Oregon, made a rare appearance in Hollywood in July to launch a DVD collection of her work, the Los Angeles Times reported.
