Joanne Dru

Biography: Born Joanne LaCock, Dru worked as a show girl and model before debuting onscreen in Abie's Irish Rose (1946). She went on to play leads in a variety of films in the '40s and '50s; after 1960 she appeared in only two productions, the second of which, Super Fuzz (1981), was her first in 16 years. She is best remembered as the lone female lead in such male-dominated classic westerns as Howard Hawks's Red River (1948) and John Ford's She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949) and Wagonmaster (1950). Her four husbands included actors Dick Haymes and John Ireland. She is the sister of game-show host Peter Marshall. Since 1972 she has been married to multi-millionaire oil executive C.V. Wood, Jr.
