Summary
Soon, she became known as the queen of the b’s. As in, queen of b-movies. Critics spotted her talent, but noted that poorly written scripts and low budget films were holding her back. Nevertheless, Lucy persisted.
And then, one day on set, Lucy met a handsome young musician named Desi Arnaz. Their chemistry was undeniable, but no one thought their romance stood a chance.
Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from:
The book, “Lucille: The Life of Lucille Ball” by Kathleen Brady
“The Plot Thickens” podcast from Turner Classic Movies
American Masters episode, “Finding Lucy”
