Farrah Fawcett

In 1998 she was severely injured by then boyfriend James Orr after refusing to marry him. They were married in 1920 in a double ceremony with actress Constance Talmadge and businessman John Piagoglou and were divorced in 1935. The relationship produced one child, Redmond, in 1985. She was married to James Rennie (1890-1965), a Canadian-born actor who was her co-star in Remodeling Her Husband (filmed in 1920, it was sister Lillian's only movie as director). From 1980 to 1997, Fawcett was involved in an often abusive relationship with actor Ryan O'Neal. She did make several appearances in anthology television series in the early 1950s. The most recent appearance was when she was 50, but still in surprisingly good shape. From 1930 until her death, she only appeared in five more movies, and one television movie.

Fawcett has appeared at least twice nude in the men's magazine Playboy. She moved to England, where she turned her attention to the stage. She claims that she was just nervous and unprepared for the appearance. Overshadowed by her sister's popularity, Dorothy virtually retired from motion pictures when talkies came along. It was speculated that her rambling, incoherent manner was because of drug abuse. Dorothy would go on to star in over 100 short films and features, many of them with Lillian. In 1997 she received some negative attention after giving a less-than-coherent interview on The Late Show with David Letterman. Griffith's An Unseen Enemy.

In this role, she played a rape victim who turns the tables on her attacker. Dorothy and Lillian both debuted in D.W. She also won acclaim in the stage and movie version of Extremities. In 1912 they met Mary Pickford, and she got them work at the Biograph Studios. Fawcett achieved critical praise as a serious actress for her role as a battered wife in the 1984 television movie, "The Burning Bed". When they were old enough, Dorothy and Lillian were brought into their mother's act, and they also modeled. She was married to actor Lee Majors from 1973 to 1982, though the two seperated in 1979. Dorothy's mother Mary began acting in order to support the family after her husband left.

A photo of Farrah in a red swimsuit was one of the most popular pin-up posters of the 1970s, and her layered, feathery-looking hairdo was among the most emulated hairstyles of the decade. Born Dorothy Elizabeth de Guiche in Dayton, Ohio, she was the sister of actress Lillian Gish. Fawcett was the best-known star of the television series Charlie's Angels, even though she was only on the cast for one year and a few guest spots. Dorothy Gish (March 11, 1898 - June 4, 1968) was an American actress. Mary Farrah Leni Fawcett (born 2 February 1947) is an actress who became a noted pop culture icon of the 1970s.
