Helen Lawson
Helen Lawson is a fictional character from Jacqueline Susann's best-selling 1966 novel "Valley of the Dolls", said to be based largely on legendary stage actress Ethel Merman.
As the novel opens, in 1945, Helen Lawson is a revered musical-comedy star of the Broadway stage. Her age never is revealed; there are only vague hints, but she's supposed to have been born ca. 1900. Her theatre history is described briefly; she has held the lead in many fictional musicals
Helen Virginia (Skipjack boat)
The Helen Virginia is a Skipjack boat built in Crisfield, Maryland in 1948. Having fallen into disrepair after decades of use, she underwent restoration beginning in 2013 in Chance, Maryland. The work was completed just in time to enter the 55th Annual Deal Island Skipjack Race, where maritime history was made on Sep 1, 2014 as the first-ever all-female skipjack crew, captained by Katarina Ennerfelt, sailed her to victory.
