Ouidad Remembers Joanne Woodward’s Wavy look, Her Oscar and Her Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

Monday, 6 June 2011 by Deb

Joanne Woodward has always had an amazing sense of style and acting chops that are envied by many. She also had one of Hollywood’s most enduring and loving marriages to fellow actor Paul Newman who passed away in 2008 at the age of 83.

Woodward, with her blond, wavy hair and somewhat tomboy-ish countenance, worked on television, the stage and in the movies beginning in the 1950s in a diverse career that was also full of twists and turns. She won an Oscar for her role as Eve White, a woman with multiple personality disorder, in the 1957 classic movie, The Three Faces of Eve.

Woodward was hugely popular in the late 1950s and early 1960s, a time when the Hollywood Walk of Fame was just starting – in fact, she was one of the first group of eight actors to be honored on the Walk (some reports credit her with being the very first star on the Walk of Fame)!

One thing’s for sure: Joanne Woodward, even decades after first appearing on screen, is beautiful inside and out! With her fashion sense, her impeccable hair and her devotion to philanthropy, Woodward is a star in every sense of the word. For that, and for much more, Ouidad salutes her and her curly ways!
