Quotes: I live by a man's code, designed to fit a man's world, yet at the same time I never forget that a woman's first job is to choose the right shade of lipstick. Relax, Georgie, I'm just making my collar and cuffs match. Bill Powell is the only intelligent actor I've ever met. I can't win working with Welles. If the picture's a huge hit he'll get the credit, and if it's a flop, I'll be blamed. - on why she wouldn't work with Orson Welles

Carole Lombard Trivia Both of her marriages were childless. A natural tomboy with athletic prowess and spirit far exceeding her size (she was a petite child who stood 5' 2", with shoes) the future screen star frequently joined her brothers in roughhousing. A 1926 auto accident badly cut her face. Advanced plastic surgery and adroit use of make-up covered the scars. Lucille Ball said she finally decided to go ahead with "I Love Lucy" (1951) when Carole, who had been a close friend, came to her in a dream and recommended she take a chance on the risky idea of entering television. Cousin of William B. Hawks, cousin-in-law of Bessie Love.
