Sounds very much like Spasmodic Dysphonia Unfortunately she isn't able to be tested for this disorder. Often known as Laryngeal dystonia/ it is a disorder affecting the voice muscles in the larnyx, also called the voice box. When you speak, air from your lungs is pushed between two elastic structures called your vocal folds -- causing them o vibrate and prodcuce your voice, In Spasmodic Dysphonia (SD), the muscles inside the vocal folds spasm(make sudden, involuntary movements), interfering with vocal fold vibrations. SD causes voice breaks during speaking and can make the voice sound tight, strained or breathy,

Did katharine hepburn have Tremors?

Yes. She suffered from a familial essential tremor passed on from her paternal grandfather. Kate did not have Parkinsons.


Katharine Hepburn why did she shake?

First of all, it wasn't Parkinsons, whihc eveyrone assumes. She said in her biography that it was a neck tic she inherited from her uncle, or someone. She even said "I found that whiskey makes it stop, but if I take too much, it stops evyerthing else too." [something along those lines]
