Part of the Biography television series from A&E, this documentary reviews the career and personal life of actress and diplomat Shirley Temple. She was discovered at a dancing school and at age three and a half was appearing in a series of short films. In 1934 she made nine movies, and won a special Academy Award for her "outstanding contributions to screen entertainment" that year.
