Rita Hayworth - born Margarita Carmen Cansino - was an American actress, dancer, and pin-up girl. The press coined the term "The Love Goddess" to describe Hayworth after she became the most glamorous screen idol of the 1940's. The AFI named her as one of the top 25 greatest female stars of Classic Hollywood cinema. The public disclosure and discussion of Hayworth's illness drew international attention to Alzheimer's disease, which was little known at the time.
