About: Remembered as a dizzy sitcom redhead
with show business aspirations, Lucille Ball was, in fact, a show business
powerhouse and television pioneer. Throughout her teen years, Ball tried
unsuccessfully to launch her show business career, finally landing a spot as a
Ziegfeld Girl. She launched her Hollywood career as one of the Goldwyn Girls,
but she moved out from the crowd of starlets to starring roles. With "I Love
Lucy" (1951), she and husband Desi Arnaz pioneered the 3-camera technique now
the standard in filming TV sitcoms, and the concept of syndicating TV programs.
She was also the first woman to own her own film studio as the head of Desilu.
