Future TV star and producer Lucille Ball was born on this day in history, August 5, 1911, in Jamestown, New York. She would go on to make television history along with husband Desi Arnaz.
She worked as a waitress and a hat model — and in 1933 Ball was hired as the Chesterfield Cigarette Girl, according to History.com
"And to the television viewing audience across the country it was immediately apparent this was a sitcom like no other," stated Biography.com.The couple welcomed their first child, Lucie, in 1951, less than a year after the premiere of"I Love Lucy." Many commonplace techniques in television productions, such as filming in front of a live studio audience and using three cameras, started with Desilu Productions, according to the National Women’s History Museum.
Two years later, Ball, by then remarried to comedian Gary Morton, bought out Arnaz and took over Desilu Productions, becoming the first woman to run a major television production studio, according to the Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz Museum. Ball’s acting work continued; she appeared in two sitcoms,"The Lucy Show" and"Here's Lucy" .
