Deleted
a photo, enlarged another and substituted a new (dramatic) photo in Letty Lynton. There are so many "Letty" photos and Joan Crawford was so dang breathtaking in it - at the height of her youthful
beauty and glamour - that one can lose one's head!!! Restraint, restraint . . . these things must be handled delicately,
as the Wicked Witch of the West so aptly put it -- er, before she melted.

Over
the past few weeks, I've been working on my most ambitious essay/opus yet Joan Crawford: My Feminist Hero. Finally finished it, although may edit it when I get a chance. See why Joan is a woman for
the ages and then some. Here’s to you, Joan! Please note, as always, that all written material on this site is under copyright of me, author, and cannot
be duplicated or borrowed without my consent. Thanks, darlings, and enjoy.
BULLETIN: I’ve
been having some trouble with my site, due to space issues and oversized photos. I
hope to resolve these issues eventually. Hang in, Joan and fans!
December 29, 2007
MERRY CHRISTMAS
AND HAPPY NEW YEAR! Site will be updated once my mammoth essay (Joan
Crawford, My Feminist Hero) is finished!
December 18, 2007
Fixed an answer in Joan Trivia (thank you, Michael!) regarding JC's color films.
December 15, 2007
Added answers to Fun with Joan Puzzles page (scroll to bottom), but ONLY for those who are at rope's
end!!!! (It's my Christmas present to the fans!)
December 14, 2007
December 7-13, 2007
I’ve been
replacing a few photos that had watermarks with ones free of those eyesores. Ultimately I hope to have all photos free
of watermarks.
Made
changes in text for Photo Galleries 5 and 8 and 10 and added by-line to all galleries to keep format consistent.
Added
a new page to Book Reviews for Love on the Run.
Replaced
a photo of Joan in a stick-up with Johnny Mack Brown for a photo of her with Dorothy Sebastain in Montana Moon. Gee, the other might've been more dramatic, although Joan's eyes
certainly show their stuff in this one!
Added
a fun, new, TECHNICOLOR photo of Joan to Johnny Guitar!
