UPDATED: Elvis and my grandmother

Posted By katie allison granju

Just have to share this story from the AP today about my grandmother and her long friendship with Elvis.

Hollywood scribe Nancy Anderson wasn’t expecting much when she first interviewed Elvis Presley in 1956 on the set of his movie “Love Me Tender.”

“I didn’t really want to meet Elvis because I had just talked to Fabian and some of these other teen idols and I thought ‘Well, here’s one more. He won’t even know his name,’” Anderson, now 89 years old and retired, recalled recently.

But it surprisingly led to a friendship with Presley that lasted until his death in 1977 and continues today with family of the late star, who would have turned 73 on Tuesday.

UPDATE: Here’s the same story but with a photo of my granny
