Ruth Warrick Facts
Fell and broke her hip in early 2001 while vacationing in Italy. The fall was incorporated into the "All My Children" (1970) script, and she continued to play her Phoebe Tyler Wallingford character on a limited basis from a wheelchair.
In July 2000, she refused to accept a lifetime achievement award from the South Carolina Arts Commission because she was offended by legislators' decision to move the Confederate flag from the state Capitol dome to another spot on the grounds in response to a boycott of the state by flag opponents. A life-long supporter of African-American rights, she felt the flag should be removed completely, and commented, "In my view, this was no compromise. It was a deliberate affront to the African-Americans who see it as a sign of oppression and hate.".
In 1991, Warrick was honored with a caricature on the wall of the famous New York restaurant Sardi's in honor of the 50th anniversary of her performance in Citizen Kane (1941).
