   Lenona to All   
   Film centenarians, from 1873 onward

   It's time to write the list.   
      
   But I'm a bit short on time right now, so here are their names and birth years   
   only.   
      
   And director Joseph H. Lewis was supposedly 100 when he died in 2000, but by   
   now, the more reputable sources say he was 93.   
      
   1873 Adolph Zukor   
   1882 Estelle Winwood   
   1887 George Abbott   
   1888 Irving Berlin   
   1889 Athene Seyler   
   1892 Hal Roach   
   1896 George Burns   
   1897 Mary Ellis   
   1898 Irving Rapper, Margaret Booth   
   1900 Frederica Maas   
   1902 Leni Riefenstahl   
   1903 Bob Hope, Johannes Heesters   
   1905 Marie Glory   
   1906 Bruce Bennett, Barbara Kent   
   1907 Dercy Gonçalves, Run Run Shaw   
   1908 Jean Delannoy, Tullio Pinelli, Manoel de Oliveira   
   1909 Robert Boyle, Carla Laemmle   
   1910 Luise Rainer, Gloria Stuart   
   1911 Lupita Tovar, Herb Jeffries, Paulette Dubost   
   1912 Kaneto Shindo   
   1913 Douglas Slocombe, Elmo Williams   
   1914 Mary Carlisle, Norman Lloyd   
   1915 Leslie H. Martinson, Wally Cassell, Patricia Morison, Jack Rollins, Van   
   Alexander   
   1916 Harry Rabinowitz, Olivia de Havilland, Jean Rouverol, Kirk Douglas   
   1917 Danielle Darrieux, Marsha Hunt   
   1918 Shinobu Hashimoto, Artur Brauner   
   1919 Caren Marsh (alive), Marge Champion   
   1920 Norma Barzman (alive)   
   1921 Bill Butler, Walter Mirisch   
   1922 Norman Lear, Micheline Presle, Janis Paige, Bert I. Gordon, Jacqueline   
   White (all alive except Gordon)   
      
   And I'd love to add director Madeline Anderson, but in addition to 1923, there   
   are claims she was born in...1924, 1927 and 1928. Very strange.   
      
   So in the meantime, we'll have to wait until October for the first official   
   centenarian of the year - Glynis Johns.
