Sister remembers Sharon Tate ahead of 50th anniversary of brutal murder
She was the iconic star and unique talent whose tragically short life is rarely discussed without recalling the shocking circumstances of her death. When Sharon Tate, her unborn child and four others were violently slain by members of the Manson Family cult, the world was left reeling from the attack on the then-wife of film director Roman Polanski.
For her sister, Debra, the murders were all the more life-changing, devastating and personal. For the actress well known to many she knew best of all. Just a teenager when her big sister was so senselessly taken from her, Debra is now celebrating the life and style of her sibling, by sharing a number of her most intimate possessions in an exhibition at the Museum of Style Icons in Newbridge, Co Kildare.
