Clara Bow was truly remarkable. She was an actress that dazzled people on and off of the screen. This episode dives into how she became the star that the world could not get enough of. She became the first "it girl", but it wasn't without scandal. Soon Clara became known for scandal just as much as she did her movies. She was a woman that lived on her own terms, and she made no apologies for it.
