 Biography 
Her parents separated before she was born. By  age  sixteen  Lucille
  had  known  three fathers, one of whom (a vaudeville theatre manager
  had given her the name Billie Cassin. By 1915  she  and  her  mother
  lived  in  Kansas  City and Billie worked in a laundry and also as a
  menial to pay school tuition. Winning an amateur  dance  contest  in
  1923  led  to  chorus  work  in  Chicago,  Detroit and New York. New
  Year's Day of  1925  she  left  for  Hollywood.  Before  her  second
  picture  a  "Photoplay"  contest led to the name Joan Crawford. With
  _Our Dancing Daughters (1928)_ (qv) she became a  star.  She  had  a
  string  of successes playing a socialite or rags-to-riches shopgirl,
  most notably as Crystal Allen  in  _Women,  The  (1939)_  (qv).  She
  stayed  with  MGM's  for  eighteen  years,  signing with Warner's in
  1943.. _Mildred Pierce (1945)_ (qv) was a defining role and  won  an
  Oscar  for  Joan.  After  more  than  seventy  films she married the
  Chairman of the Board of Pepsi Cola Company with which she  remained
  after  his  fatal  heart  attack  in  1959 (till 1972 when corporate
  powers saw no further use for her and pushed  her  out;  after  that
  she  referred  to  the CEO as "Fang"). 1962's _What Ever Happened to
  Baby Jane? (1962)_ (qv) brought new careers to  both  Joan  Crawford
  and  'Bette  Davis' (qv), though the roles were neither numerous nor
  flattering. Horrified by a photo taken of her in 1974,  she  retired
  completely,  devoting  herself  to  Christian Science and increasing
  use of vodka. Her four adopted children  received  little  from  her
  two  million  dollar  estate:  $77,500  each  for  Cathy  and Cindy,
  nothing for Christopher or Christina  "for  reasons  best  known  to
  them".
