Joan Crawford Fast Facts:

Introduced to entertainment industry at an early age by her stepfather who was a vaudeville theater manger. Dance lessons led to work on Broadway and in nightclubs as a teenager, using her stepfather's surname, Billie Cassin.
Initially credited with her given name Lucille LeSueur, MGM assigned her the new name Joan Crawford after a nationwide publicity contest.
With more than 20 films under her belt and despite mediocre critical reception, broke out as a star in 1928's Our Dancing Daughters.
Labeled "box-office poison" by an exhibitors' poll in 1938.
Released from MGM by Louis B. Mayer, regained her stature at Warner Bros., which lead to an Oscar-winning performance as a hard-working, sympathetic mother in 1945's Mildred Pierce.
After three failed marriages to actors, wed Pepsi-Cola chairman Alfred Steele in 1956 and became active on the beverage company's board of directors.
In 1968, the 60-year-old Crawford acted on the soap opera The Secret Storm, substituting for her ailing daughter Christina, 30 years her junior.
Appeared in the 1969 pilot of Rod Serling's mystery anthology series Night Gallery. The episode was a trilogy, with her portion directed by newcomer Stephen Spielberg.
With no provision made in her mother's will, Crawford's adopted daughter Christina published a scathing tell-all book, Mommie Dearest, after her mother's death chronicling her cruel upbringing.
