1 | Joi Lansing's final resting place is at Pierce Brothers Santa Paula Cemetery, in Santa Paula, California. Section N, Lot 444. |
2 | She was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6259 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California on February 8, 1960. |
3 | Was considered for the role of Venus De Marco in the horror film The Ice House (1969), which went to Sabrina. |
4 | Her parents, Jack Glenn Brown, a shoe salesman, and Virginia Grace (Shupe) Brown, were devout Mormons. They divorced when Joy was young and her mother later married Vernon Loveland, who adopted her. |
5 | As Joy Loveland, she began posing as early as age 13, and attended MGM's studio talent school at age 17. |
6 | Was married four times. Her first marriage occurred at age 17 but lasted less than a year. Her second, to Columbia sales manager Jerry Safron, was over within four months. Her third, to handsome actor Lance Fuller, ended in separation and divorce after only a year and a half. She was long estranged from fourth husband, Stan Todd, an investment broker who became her manager, by the time she died of breast cancer in 1972. |
7 | Known as a Hollywood party girl, among her many flings were Mickey Rooney, George Raft and Frank Sinatra. |
8 | Was considered for the role of Miss Casswell in All About Eve (1950), which eventually went to Marilyn Monroe. |
9 | Chicago Tribune columnist, Toni Remineh, was her press agent at one time. |
10 | She was considered for a regular continuing character role in the television series Adventures of Superman (1952) after the success of her role as "Superman's Wife" in the final season, filmed in the fall of 1957, but the series was canceled; she might have returned to the series in 1959-1960 if only George Reeves had lived to make it. |
