This Hollywood superstar hurt her career to encourage safer work environments for WWII women!

This Hollywood superstar hurt her career to encourage safer work environments for WWII women!

Veronica Lake was an American film, stage and television actress.




Lake's breakthrough role was in the 1941 war drama I Wanted Wings. The film was a major hit in which Lake played the second female lead.




She also had starring roles in more popular movies, including Sullivan's Travels, This Gun for Hire, and many other great films.




A stray lock of her shoulder-length, blonde hair during a publicity photo shoot led to her iconic "peekaboo" hairstyle, which was widely imitated.




During World War II, Lake changed her trademark image to encourage women working in war industry factories to adopt more practical, safer hairstyles, although doing so may have damaged her career.




The media can really influence a huge amount of people, which is why it needs to be used for good purposes whenever it’s necessary.
