John Crawford Biography Paperback Book by Bob Thomas from Bantam Book 1979
Few Hollywood careers have been more fabulous, more scandalous, more dizzyingly from rags to riches and from triumph to tragedy, more glaringly limelit than that of Joan Crawford born Lucille Fay LeSueur, in 1906 or (1908 according to her press releases) in Texas.
Miss Crawford rose from being a telephone operator in Kansas City to glamour, glitter, romance and ultimate stardom.
