I'd been trying for all of the eight years we'd been married to have a child, and finally I did.

My forehead is sometimes too high, but bangs could correct this.

I'd say my happiest moment as an actress came when I learned I'd won the Look Magazine Best Supporting Actress Award for 1956 in The Killing.

I'd also say having Jack's son Chris living with us from his 13th year on helped in raising Rick.

The scene where I took my eyelashes off we did in two takes.

Regrettably, I do sometimes have to fight a tendency to be bitchy.

By Rice's own standards, the war was well underway by the time he took office. He was a war president the moment he took the oath. But did he act like one?
