301 A Redhead Personality

<p>Chapter 1 of ‘Lucille,’ our season celebrating Lucille Ball, begins the road to ‘I Love Lucy.’  (Spoiler!  We end the season with that hit show beginning!)  After all, the 40 years before that?  That’s a road far too less traveled and far too interesting to miss.  We begin with a little girl in west New York state living the poverty-tragedy of Dickens.  Well, that isn’t going to stop our hero who dreams of becoming an actress.  There are struggles in Jamestown and eventually Manhattan where the little girl becomes a young lady but, no matter the struggles, the dreams hold steady.  And running side-by-side with Broadway footlights?  Keeping her family together.  Please share your questions and comments here and/or on Instagram @fromoutofthepastpodcast!  Thanks for listening ...</p>
