| BIOGRAPHY It all began with a one line part in the movie “Lady Godiva Rides Again”. Joan had a role as a contestant in a local beauty pageant. This led to more small parts until the J. Arthur Rank Organization signed 18 years old Joan to star in “I Believe In You”, her fourth picture. It wasn’t long before Twentieth Century Fox waved a contract from across the sea and Joan took her place as Hollywood’s newest starlet in “The Virgin
Queen”. |

said “Life is a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death” A quote that couldn’t be further from the truth for a large amount of the actors and actresses in Hollywood today. From the beginning Joan’s career has had many ups and downs and to borrow a quote from Joan taken from “Second Act” - “It’s been a long and winding road” - A tribute of highlights and honours bestowed on a woman whom it is safe to say will never go hungry again. |
