in honor of Women's History Month we salute Lucille Ball who is famed as a comedian and entrepreneur, but did you know that she also has a special place in the history of science fiction as the savior of Star Trek? In 1964, Ball was the sole owner of Desilu Studios and the first woman to ever run a major Hollywood studio. At the time, Desilu producers were looking for ideas that could be developed into new series and they contracted two ambitious writers to develop pilots: Gene Roddenberry with "Star Trek" and Bruce Geller with "Mission: Impossible."
