Loretta Young was quite possibly the most glamorous of all movie stars during her era. Ms Young, a very beautiful woman, was known worldwide for her great incomparable style. A Star for nearly 70 years until her Death Ms. Young was as fabulously beautiful in her 80's as she was beginning her career in silent movies. Loretta Young won her Oscar in an upset over the favored Roz Russell in a year that the Oscar rightfully in my opinion should have been awarded to Susan Hayward for her magnificent performance in "Smash Up". Ms Young worked with many of the greatest stars of Hollywood such as Susan Hayward, Cary Grant, David Niven, Alan Ladd, etc and two Men who would be her lovers: Spencer Tracy and Clark Gable who fathered Young's child out of wedlock. A devout Woman, Ms Young hid the identity of her Child's Father until her death: Mr Gable. Fearing banishment from Hollywood due to a morals clause she always told people she adopted her Daughter. Miss Young was a devout Catholic- along with Irene Dunne, John Ford, Roz Russell,Gary Cooper, and a Star who claimed to be converted to Catholicism due to Young: Jane Wyman. Ms Young and Ms Wyman in retirement attended Mass together. After a career where she gave fine performances such as "The Bishop's Wife" etc. Ms.Young was one of the first of the great movie stars to make the transition to TV and starred in her own weekly show the highlight of which were her memorable entrances wearing fabulous dress ensembles | ||

| Loretta Young was a very beautiful, and classy lady, as well as a very talented actress. I remember watching her TV series "The Loretta Young Show when I was a child. She had eloquence, poise, and a very ladylike style about her, which I don't see too much in this current time frame. I am going to buy her TV series. It is currently shown on a TV channel where I live in the evenings. Looking at that program brings back pleasant memories of my childhood. To Loretta, R.I.P. You were one in a million. | ||
