As a baby boomer, I, along with millions of others, grew up loving Lucille Ball.
Her life has always been of interest to me. From the extraordinary business woman to the rocky marriage between her and the love of her life, there was a lot more to this woman than most people know.
Join me in honoring Lucy with this lens dedicated to her for all the laughter she gave all of us then and to the generations that will follow.
Please rate my lens and sign my guestbook. I'd love to hear about your love for Lucy. Thanks.

I didn't grow up when I LOVE LUCY hit the TV screen first time and it was only during the 70's that I've discovered her (Lucille Ball) when I was around 10 years old and I instantly fell in love with all the reruns of this show! I adored her wholesome humor! Now, I'm in my 40's, I'm still frantically looking for I LOVE LUCY videos and thank God for this lens of yours, Robbin! My mom will hate me if I won't share this to her! Great lens! You might also want to take a look at this site that offers I love Lucy Checks ! You'll love it! Posted May 09, 2008 |
