#980237 Dame Elizabeth Taylor has defied death many times throughout her life, proving time and again that her mental strength overpowers her physical frailties. The wheelchair-stricken Taylor graced Beverly Hills with her presence Saturday afternoon as she helped launch her elegant new jewelry line at Gearys. Looking frail and weighed down by her diamond and ruby-encrusted earrings and necklace, the 75-year-old actress smiled graciously for cameras and for her adoring fans. While she has lived through two bouts with pneumonia, a tracheotomy, back fractures, two hip replacements and a brain tumor, Taylor’s resolve has remained fully intact, proving that she truly epitomizes feminine empowerment and strength of character even in the waning years of her life.
