Did Katherine hepburn smoke

I was curious about this because I saw her in the 1957 movie "Desk Set".

She was born in 1907, so she was age 50 when this was filmed. I thought she had a "smokers face", though I don't think she appeared smoking in any film I had seen; e.g., African Queen.

So I researched this- she was indeed a smoker, though she may have quit before her death at age 96.

There is at least 1 photo on the internet of her holding a cigarette, not from a film.

Towards the end of her life it is mentioned that she was in failing health, though I saw no details available about that.

After many years of smoking, it is well accepted that this has a very detrimental effect on a person's appearance, especially in the face.
