Towards the end of her time, Katherine Hepburn became closer to her extended family dividing time between her New York townhouse and New England estate. She maintained close relationships with friends in Hollywood assisting them when they were in trouble and freely giving the grandmotherly advice she was famous for.

She once commented she was "America's grandmother", so beloved was she to people everywhere. In the second part of this homespun look at Hepburn's life, Kate speaks candidly about her life after Hollywood following the death of her beloved, Spencer Tracey.
