March 23, 1905
A legend was born on this day 105 years ago…
She was born Lucille Fay LeSueur and appeared in her first film in 1925. Her more notable films include Queen Bee, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?, Johnny Guitar, Autumn Leaves,
Flamingo Road, Mildred Pierce, A Woman’s Face and Rain…
On television she guest starred on “General Electric Theater”, “Zane Grey Theater”, “The Man from U.N.C.L.E.”, The Secret Storm”, “The Lucy Show” and “The Virginian.”
Her final film appearance was in 1970 and her final acting role all together was on an episode of “The Sixth Sense” in 1972…
Much has been said over the years about her feud with fellow actress Bette Davis and her less than pleasant relationship with her children but putting all that aside for a moment let’s not forget that this lady was one hell of a performer!
She passed away on May 10, 1977...
