  • Summary

  • As Lucille Ball grew older, she struggled to keep her career going. She got back into movies. She started another sitcom. But critics were cruel. In addition to critiquing her work, they critiqued her – for looking her age. By the mid-80s, she found herself on the receiving end of countless accolades and lifetime achievement awards. But Lucy wasn’t ready to throw in the towel just yet.

    Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from:
    “Love, Lucy,” by Lucille Ball
    “The Plot Thickens” podcast from Turner Classic Movies
    “The Life of Lucille Ball,” by Kathleen Brady
    The documentary “Lucy and Desi”
    “Ball of Fire,” by Stefan Kanfer
