*[[Frances Farmer]], who as a [[public school]]er in 1931, denied God in a controversial award winning high school essay and in 1935, visited the [[USSR]], was also popular in the 1930s to the point of being considered "the next [[Greta Garbo]]", had three marriages at least two of whom ended in divorce, with extramarital affairs during at least one that included one with married writer Clifford Odets. She also had multiple [[abortions]] when abortion was illegal; the guilt of which caused her to avoid all contact with children. In 1968, however, while living in [[Indianapolis]] for the previous ten years (she died there in 1970 at age 56), a friend's child whispered to her that she was "good", something that nobody ever said or thought about her before. Soon afterwards, she went to St. [[Joan of Arc]] Catholic Church in West Lafayette where she went to [[confession]] of all her sins and took up classes about and was eventually baptized into the Catholic faith, turning away from her former lifestyle.

*[[Florence Henderson]], despite her wholesome ''Carol Brady'' image on ''[[The Brady Bunch]]'', fell victim to these values ([[adultery]]) during her first marriage to Ira Bernstein in the late 1960s and early 1970s in an affair with [[New York City]]'s then-mayor John Lindsay, who she claims gave her crab lice.
