Shirley Jane Temple, later known as Shirley Temple Black, is an American film actress & diplomat who is considered by many to be the most famous child actress in history. One of her first film roles was in Bright Eyes, for which she won a special Academy Award. It was in that film that she sang On the Good Ship Lollipop ; though she often sang in her films, that was probably her most famous song. She subsequently starred in many films including Heidi, Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm & Susannah of the Mounties. By the late 1930s she was the biggest box-office attraction in motion pictures & the success of her films may have saved more than one major studio from bankruptcy during the Great Depression. The role of Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, played by Judy Garland, was originally intended for her. Temple retired from film acting in her early twenties. Later appearances on television did not prove as popular as her films. Temple married the California businessman Charles Black in 1950 ; she may have looked favorably on his admission while dating that he had never seen any of her films. Posters Of Shirley Temple
