Veronica Lake [Actress]
Veronica Lake
was described by Bette Davis as "the most beautiful person who ever came to Hollywood," her success was fleeting and after a string of broken marriages and long struggles with mental illness and alcoholism she died almost destitute. She measured 4'11" tall, married 4 times and had 4 children. Jessica Rabbit from the movie, 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit' was designed after Veronica Lake. Jessica even sports the Veronica Lake trademark "Peek-a-Boo" hairstyle. Lake was 53 when she died of hepatitis and acute renal failure (complications of her alcoholism) near Burlington, Vermont. Her ashes were scattered off the Virgin Islands.
