Woman of the Week: Lucille Ball

WOMAN OF THE WEEK
LUCILLE BALL
1911 - 1989

As I was looking for pictures of Lucille I realized how much I love her facial expressions and how timeless her humor is. I still watch I Love Lucy episodes and almost cry because I am laughing so hard. She had some hurdles to overcome to become a successful actress, though when CBS made them take a pay cut to stay in L.A. and film she negotiated to keep the rights to all the film shot. She made millions off of rerun royalties. So not only was she funny, she was an intelligent business woman.
