¡Feliz Cumpleaños, Lucille Ball!
AKA Lucille Désirée Ball.
Born August 6, 1911. Died April 26, 1989.
She was the star of one of the most popular TV sitcoms of all time, not to mention the most famous TV spouse of an Anglo-Latino couple ever to appear on television. It says something about how mainstream her family's status was that when I was growing up, I never once considered her daughter Lucie Arnaz to be a Hispanic half-and-half like myself even though her father was obviously Cuban. To this day, Ms. Ball continues to be a major influence on the pop culture world. And yet my maternal grandparents used to think my siblings and I were crazy because we watched I Love Lucy much.
