An Original Vintage 7" x 9" [18 x 23 cm] News Photo (Learn More) Judy Garland (born Frances Ethel Gumm) was a legendary actress and singer from the 1930s to the 1960s. She was born in 1922, and as a young child performed with her older sisters as "The Gumm Sisters". In 1935, she was signed to a contract by MGM, who changed her name to Judy Garland. She appeared in some shorts, but in 1937, at Clark Gable's birthday party, she sang "You Made Me Love You", which was filmed, and got her noticed, and her role as Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz" gave her great fame. She appeared in "Ziegfeld Girl" in 1941, and "For Me and My Gal" in 1942, and she appeared in a series of popular musicals with Mickey Rooney. Her personal life was very messy, with many affairs and problems with drugs and alcohol. She married director Vincente Minnelli in 1945, and in 1946 had daughter Liza. She went on to another marriage to Sid Luft, and the remainder of her life was very troubled, but she continued to perform, including giving two excellent film performances in "Judgment at Nuremberg" (where she was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award) and "A Child is Waiting". Some of her other movies include: Meet Me in St. Louis, A Star Is Born (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), and many more. She passed away in 1969 at the age of 47 from an accidental barbiturate overdose. AND Elizabeth Taylor was one of the most legendary actresses of all time! She started as a child actress in the 1940s, became a teen actress in the 1950s, and became a major star from the 1960s to the 1990s. Some of her movies include: Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf? (winner of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), North and South, Cat On A Hot Tin Roof (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), A Place in the Sun, Giant, Jane Eyre, Father of the Bride, National Velvet, Suddenly, Last Summer (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Raintree County (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Butterfield 8 (winner of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), and the "Lassie" films. Some consider her the most beautiful brunette actress of all time! She passed away in 2011 at the age of 79. AND Eddie Fisher was a singer and actor from the 1950s to the 2010s. He famously married actress Debbie Reynolds and they had a daughter, Carrie Fisher, who went on to star as "Princess Leia" in the "Star Wars" movies. His career never recovered after he brutally left Debbie (with their two young children) for Liz Taylor! Some of his movies include: Bundle of Joy, and Butterfield 8. He passed away in 2010 at the age of 82.
