Description - Piper Laurie: A Journey through the Spotlight - Breaking the Molds of Hollywood by Elizabeth Stanley

She made her Broadway debut at the age of barely 17 after completing her drama studies in New York. Her breakout performance was in the 1953 movie "Johnny Guitar," and she went on to act in many more well-known films of the era, including "The Hustler" and "Carrie." To broaden her range and redefine what it meant to be a leading lady, Piper Laurie started to take on more challenging and nuanced roles as her career developed. She broke away from the stereotypical Hollywood starlet image and carved out her path, becoming a dominant figure in both film and television.
