Intrepid reporter and TV star Dorothy Kilgallen, who investigated the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy, will get a Manhattan street co-named in her honor Saturday on the 60th anniversary of her mysterious death. Before media icons like Barbara Walters, Kilgallen smashed the glass ceiling in male-dominated NYC newspapers, the New York Evening Journal and New York Journal American.
