Game Changer, Lucille Ball


 

She was the first woman to be the head of a television production company. She had 15 Emmy nominations and 4 wins. She paved the way for Mary Tyler Moore, Penny Marshall, Cybill Shepherd, and Robin Williams. She was the first woman to be pregnant on television in real life and as a part of her series. Her career survived communism and divorce when both of these things were very taboo. She has two stars on the Walk of Fame in Hollywood (one for TV, one for movies). This game changer was Lucille Ball.
