The Best of the Best on Legendary Susan Hayward

This is the best of the best of Susan Hayward. A review with love and dedication to viewers, who unlike me, did not have the fortune of meeting Mr. Moreno. How did I meet Eduardo Moreno? In the late 1990's, I started a web page on Susan Hayward. It was titled the Susan Hayward Georgia Web Page. Why did I start a web page on actress who wasn't as famous as Marilyn Monroe, Lucille Ball and Joan Crawford. Precisely for that reason, I felt Susan Hayward should be in the same league as some of the other big stars. Susan was not only a beautiful actress but a smart one. Before I tell you about my encounter with Eduardo, let me tell you why I fell in love with Susan Hayward. In my childhood, I fell in love with Susan Hayward. I remember stories my mother always told me while driving home from my grandparents on how she was so sad that Susan Hayward was dying. Susan Hayward at the time was younger than Farrah Fawcett, Goldie Hawn, and other big name older actresses of today. She was dying from brain tumors. However, Susan being the tough fighter as she was broke medical records and lived three youngers than what doctors expected. I fell in love with Susan for her courage and strength. Eduardo's book covers this story and on Susan's rise to fame, her struggles, and tragedies. There are many rare photos in this extensive book. Also, the book lists every movie Susan Hayward has appeared in and her rare television performances. Susan's only play "Mame" is mentioned with rare photographs. If you can't find the hardback book, buy the paperback only. Even if you have to pay $50, it is well worth it for this rare out of print book. Now, how I met Eduardo. My web page required many sources and pictures to be used. Luckily, an email friend of mine knew Eduardo Moreno. She gave me his number and I called. He was very glad that I was doing a web page on Susan Hayward. Even after 15 years since his book was last published, Eduardo still thought and love Susan Hayward. Through arraignments and the loving care of my ex-significant other, I was able to fly up to New York and stay with Eduardo Moreno. It was a rare treat. He had scrap books piled high from the floor of his attic which had nothing but pictures and articles of Susan Hayward. We spent hours looking at some of the scrap books. Unfortantly in comparison to the Smithsonian Institute, it would have taken at least 2 weeks to see everything. Many of the rare pictures in the Films of Susan Hayward came from Eduardo's personal collection. Eduardo had a beautiful oil painting of Susan Hayward in his living room. We started a friendship and kept in touch over the next year. I visited Eduardo one more time around Christmas of 1999. I am glad I have pictures of the two of us and his autographed book of the Films of Susan Hayward. Unfortunately, My significant other and I had a nasty fight and I moved out of the house after 8 years. I had to go back to work and had to stop my Susan Hayward web page. I lost contact
