Considered one of the world's most beautiful women, even today at age 69, she still stuns the world with her violet eyes and flashy smile. But don't let the beauty fool your eyes, as La Liz has suffered quite a bit in her long and enduring life which she seems to keep a remarkable calmness about some of the inner turmoil she has been faced with. |

Elizabeth Taylor holds onto her first Oscar win for "Butterfield 8". The film had been shot in 1961, and during this time she was also shooting the infamous "Cleopatra," as well as recovering from pneumonia. |

Before any of her films with Richard Burton or her scandelous affair with Eddie Fischer, Liz was first one of the most notable child stars when she was young. In this picture, she is on the set of "Little Women," (1949) which also starred Janet Leigh and June Allyson in a somewhat so-so version of the popular book. |

In one of my favorite films and introduction to horse racing, Elizabeth starred in the wonderful film, "National Velvet." |

Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift Starred in the tragic "A Place in the Sun," (1951) based on the Theodore Drieser early 20th century novel of how class divisions in society can effect one's morale and motives. |

One of my favorite early Taylor photographs, this captures so much of her youth and the growing beauty she was becoming. This was one of her last adolescent roles in "Lassie Come Home" |

Here is a rare shot of Elizabeth Taylor in the film, "There's One Born Every Minute," with one of "Our Gang" characters, (except this time his hair is straightened out :) |

One of my very favorite photos of Elizabeth Taylor, and yet she was a mere 17 years old when this was taken. |

A vintage magazine from my collection, which has a tabloid like story on Elizabeth's rocky marriage to Eddie Fischer. |
