- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5what an amazing collection I never knew that Lucille Ball did dramas and suspense productions. So it was so ratchet to hear Lucille Ball and such amazing dramatic roles. it gave me a new respect for her career as a actress. does anyone else know that Lucille Ball was also a race car driver after a severe accident in a race. her car was totaled and she walked out of it with a small injuries. But she ended up deciding to become an actress instead after that. she is still known as one of the best race car drivers to ever race. her name was different back then she changed her name to Lucille Ball when she became an actress.
