Actress Jennifer Jones, who won an Academy Award for her performance in The Song of Bernadette, died Thursday at her home in Malibu; she was 90. The recipient of four other Oscar nominations, Jones was known as Phylis Walker early in her career, when she was married to actor Robert Walker, whom she met in acting school. However, it was producer David O. Selznick who "discovered" her, changed her name, groomed her for a big-screen career -- and later married her after she divorced Walker. Under Selznick's guidance, she made her first big film, The Song of Bernadette, the story of a French peasant girl who sees visions of the Virgin Mary near the village of Lourdes. The movie catapulted her to fame and an Oscar, and roles in 40s hits such as Since You Went Away, Love Letters, Portrait of Jennie, and the notorious-for-its-time Duel in the Sun followed. In the 50s she appeared in the cult hit Beat the Devil, the hit drama Love Is a Many Splendored Thing, and the massive flop A Farewell to Arms, produced by her husband. After Selznick's death in 1965, she mostly retired from acting, making her last screen appearance in the disaster movie The Towering Inferno.  (IMDB)
