Which actress was born Lucille Fay LeSueur in 1905?

Joan Crawford (born Lucille Fay LeSueur; March 23, c. 1904 – May 10, 1977) was an American film and television actress who began her career as a dancer and stage showgirl. In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked Crawford tenth on its list of the greatest female stars of Classic Hollywood Cinema.

Beginning her career as a dancer in traveling theatrical companies, before debuting as a chorus girl on Broadway, Crawford signed a motion picture contract with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in 1925. In the 1930s, Crawford's fame rivaled, and later outlasted, MGM colleagues Norma Shearer and Greta Garbo. Crawford often played hard-working young women who find romance and success.

In 1945 she starred in 'Mildred Pierce', for which she won the Academy Award for Best Actress. She would go on to receive Best Actress nominations for 'Possessed' (1947) and 'Sudden Fear' (1952). She continued to act in film and television throughout the 1950s and 1960s; she achieved box office success with the highly successful horror film 'Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?' (1962), in which she starred alongside Bette Davis, her long-time rival.
