About:
Shirley Temple
was easily the most popular and famous child star of all time.
She got her start in the movies at the age of three and soon progressed to super
stardom. Shirley could do it all, act, sing and dance and all at the age of
five! Fans loved her as she was bright, bouncy and cheerful in her films and
they ultimately bought millions of dollars worth of products that had her
likeness on them. Dolls, phonograph records, mugs, hats, dresses, whatever it
was, if it had her picture on there they bought it. Shirley was the box-office
champion for three straight years, 1936-37-38, beating out such great grown up
stars as Clark Gable, Bing Crosby, Robert Taylor, Gary Cooper and 'Joan
Crawford' . By 1939, her popularity declined. Although she starred in some very
good movies like Since You Went Away (1944), and the The Bachelor and
the Bobby-Soxer (1947), her career was nearing its end. Later she served as
an ambassador to Ghana and Czechoslovakia. It was once guessed that she had more
than 50 golden curls on her head.
