dbo:abstract
  • Ann Eden Woodward (born Evangeline Lucille Crowell; December 12, 1915 – October 10, 1975) was an American socialite, showgirl, model, and radio actress. In 1940, while working as a nightclub dancer and radio actress, she was voted "The Most Beautiful Girl in Radio". Woodward became a prominent and controversial figure in New York high society after her marriage to banking heir William Woodward Jr. Although never convicted, she was suspected of murder after she shot and killed her husband in 1955, claiming that she had mistaken him for a burglar. The circumstances surrounding her husband's death led to Woodward becoming a cause célèbre and, later, being banished from high society. Life called the event "The Shooting of the Century". In 1975, Truman Capote published excerpts from an unfinished novel Answered Prayers, which accused Woodward of murdering her husband. Just before the stories were to be published in Esquire, she killed herself by taking cyanide. (en)
