Welcome to our first video from Gate of Heaven Cemetery in Hawthorne, New York. You may remember Dorothy Kilgallen as a panelist on the 1960s game show What's My Line. But what you probably didn't know is that she may have died because of her investigation into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy by the Mob. So sit back, enjoy the video and let me know what you think in the comments. To find the exact location of the final resting place of Dorothy along with biographical information, links, interviews, photos and videos please visit thetombstonetourist.com/graves/grave-dorothy-kilgallen-gate-of-heaven-cemetery/.

Called by famed attorney F. Lee Bailey “A very bright and very good reporter of criminal cases, the best there was,” “One of the greatest women writers in the world,” by Ernest Hemingway, and by the New York Post, “The most powerful female voice in America,” Dorothy Kilgallen was a What’s My Line? television star, radio personality, celebrated journalist, revered investigative reporter and author. After spending two semesters at the College of New Rochelle, she started her career shortly before her 18th birthday as a reporter for the Hearst Corporation's New York Evening Journal. In 1938, she began her newspaper column "The Voice of Broadway", which was eventually syndicated to more than 140 papers. In 1950, she became a regular panelist on the television game show What's My Line?, continuing in the role until her death. Kilgallen's columns featured mostly show-business news and gossip, but also ventured into other topics, such as politics and organized crime. She wrote front-page articles for multiple newspapers on the Sam Sheppard trial and, years later, events related to the John F. Kennedy assassination, such as testimony by Jack Ruby. As Kilgallen neared the end of her JFK assassination investigation, her body was discovered in her townhouse bedroom with the official cause of death a drug overdose combined with alcohol consumption: “Circumstances Undetermined.”
