The original walk was made with  2,500 blank stars.

Joanne Woodward has the first star on the Walk of Fame.

1,558 stars were awarded over the following 16 months.

They are now added at the rate of approximately two per month.

Additional stars were added to extend the Walk west past Sycamore to La Brea Avenue, where it is now terminated by the Silver Four Ladies of Hollywood Gazebo. The total number of stars awarded is approximately 2,150.

As far as I know, Joanne Woodward is the name who walked at first on the way of fame.....

Hollywood does not have its own municipal government, but does have an official, appointed by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, who serves as an honorary "Mayor of Hollywood" for ceremonial purposes only.

Johnny Grant held this position for decades, until his death on January 9, 2008........

Walk of Fame is ( 3,5 ) mile ( 5,6 km ) ....  :)   There are about 2.450 of the stars have been dedicated , so far , but they are added almost every week , so the real number ....Just to add , that John Lennon have 2 stars . Beatles fans gather each year at John Lennon's Star to commemorate the anniversary of his death .
