This woman is known, by her looks, for her red hair, inherited by her father. She lived around the sixteenth century. In this time she was noted as one of the best monarchs England had ever seen. Also in this time, she had a horrible sickness that caused her to wear pounds of make-up to cover unsightly facial scars. Name this woman, the sickness that she had, and a playwright that she may have met during her lifetime that wrote such literature as "Twelfth Night" and "Cymbeline".

The woman is Elizabeth I, the disease which caused her disfigurement was smallpox, and the playwright was Shakespeare. http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/TUDelizabeth1.htm Mar 26 06, 12:12 PM

Naw...I'll let them figure it out on there own. I just really believe Elizabeth was Henry's daughter. From what I know about Tudor history (which is more than your average bear), I've come to my own personal conclusion that Anne Boleyn was innocent of adultery, which is what Henry VIII accused her of.

How old does Lucille Ball claim she was when she began dying her hair red? She has sold over 32 million albums in the US alone and two of her LPs are among the best-selling, ever. However, she has never had a number one single. Who am I talking about? This woman was born into lower classes (her mother was a stage performer) and attended the school where her father taught. She eventually took a job as a governess and married the brother of her charges. She was constantly raising her social status, often creating minor scandals. Later in her life, she became reacquainted with a former suitor whose death she may or may not have been involved in. Who is she? In 2004 who revealed that her husband said that she was more beautiful than Marilyn Monroe because she had a bigger bust?
