Definitely beyond Start class.

Check out [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Biography#WikiProject_Biography_11_easy_steps_to_producing_at_least_a_B_article|WikiProject Biography Tips]] for writing better articles. -- [[User:Yamara|<b style="color:#FF3300;">Yamara</b>]] 21:17, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

:I would suggest this article is actually NOT beyond "Start" class. One of the major issues with it is lack of full and correct biographical information. For example: the article section on her writing career jumps to a point where it states that "In 1947, after her second term in the US House expired, Luce wrote a series of articles..." However, no prior discussion or mention of her congressional seat is given (this appears later in the article). Additionally the dates of writing vs political involvement overlap and are not clear.

:This article needs some very serious corrections and improvements. IMHO it is not yet beyond "Start" class. I hope that someone will be able to do these improvements, as it would be helpful to know more about her start in government. It is particularly unclear how she managed to be a war-time journalist while also apparently holding a congressional seat! --[[User:Gobears87|gobears87]] ([[User talk:Gobears87|talk]]) 10:42, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

: This section is horrible -- Marriage to Henry Luce -- it makes the Luce's sound like junior members of the [[Algonquin Round Table]]. We're talking about one of the most influential couples in American history, not some SoHo beatnick writer. Score another dud for the Wiki method.

== LSD/Drug Use ==
This sentence from the original article:  
:"''Her husband introduced her to the hallucinogen [[LSD]] in the late 1950s.''" 
is not in any of my source material.  Your source please.  [[User:WBardwin|WBardwin]] 06:31, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I don't know the original source, but I don't think it's a disputed point. See the Library of Congress's discussion of her papers (which reside there): [http://lcweb2.loc.gov/service/mss/eadxmlmss/eadpdfmss/2003/ms003044.pdf]: "She experimented with LSD under the tutelage of Gerald Heard and Sidney Cohen (1910- )" - [[User:Nunh-huh|Nunh-huh]] 06:36, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

--with her husband?  [[User:WBardwin|WBardwin]] 06:40, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Yes, with her husband. Why does that seem peculiar??? In any case: <blockquote>Heard's attitude to the psychedelics was enthusiastic (with appropriate research caveats and precautions). Playing the role of "psychedelic psychopomp," he championed their intelligent use (under a physician's supervision) among his select coterie of friends, who included, for example, William C. Mullendore (Chairman of the Board of Southern California Edison), Bill Wilson (the cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous), philosopher William Ernest Hocking, Jesuit theologian Father John Courtney Murray, film director John Huston, and Time publisher Henry Luce and his wife, Clare Booth Luce.</blockquote> [http://www.island.org/ive/2/heard2.html] - [[User:Nunh-huh|Nunh-huh]] 06:45, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

:no, not peculiar.  Just wanted to get it right in the article.  [[User:WBardwin|WBardwin]] 06:53, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

::She probably drank a lot with him, too<g>. - [[User:Nunh-huh|Nunh-huh]] 07:05, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)


:::The phrasing of the sentence makes it sound as if they were using the drug for recreational purposes when in fact it was for experimental psychiatric purposes. While it is factual I think it should be rephrased to make the intent clearer. [[User:Elipongo|Elipongo]] 18:17, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

::::Dear [[User:WBardwin|WBardwin]], [[User:Nunh-huh|Nunh-huh]], [[User:Elipongo|Elipongo]], I added the caveat, based on Elipongo's suggestion and WBardwin's questioning the cite to his own book, and Nunh-huh's cite to an inventory list, to clarify the drug use. Just because you are fiends with Dr. LSD, does not mean you are trippy. {{done}} We need a better verifiable source.

== No Good Good Deed Goes Unpunished ==

In what context did she make this famous quote? Thanks for your time and info. I am, Roger Spencer, Toronto, Canada

: Dear Roger, she actually did not '''make''' this famous quote at all, because it already existed: see here [http://www.insidehighered.com/views/2006/11/29/mclemee]
::''It turns out that Clare Boothe Luce’s most famous quip, “No good deed goes unpunished,” first recorded in 1957, was actually attributed to Walter Winchell 15 years earlier. And as Shapiro notes, there is evidence to suggest that it had been a proverb even before that.'' [[User:Textor|Textor]] ([[User talk:Textor|talk]]) 03:00, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

== clarifications? ==

This sentence is in the article: "Luce's unsettling observations eventually led to changes in British military policy in the Middle East." Observations of what, exactly? What was changed? Was she documenting the torture of prisoners, or the use of bagpipes (possibly related)?  Also, the intro cites her as a [[social activist]], but I don't see anything in the article that seems to support this label. Does it just refer to her championing anti-communism? -Bert [[User:171.159.64.10|171.159.64.10]] 02:53, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

For your informstion there is no evidence of British Army personel torturing Africa Korps prisoners, both sides fought with dignity. Also I find your qoute about bagpipes offensive becuase I am a Scotsman and we proudly march into battle with the pipes playing. We don`t care what Americans think, Scotland biult the greatest empire the world ever saw. Dumb yank

::Dear Bert, As of 19 June 2014, another editor address this issue. Dear Scotsman, The bagpipe or torture issue is just a retorical on the part of Bert. {{done}} My best regards to both,  [[User:Geraldshields11|Geraldshields11]] ([[User talk:Geraldshields11|talk]]) 20:44, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

==Taiwan==
There doesn't seem to be much mention of her prominent activities in the 1960's or early 1970's to keep up U.S. support of Taiwan, and to stave off U.S. recognition for the P.R.C. [[User:AnonMoos|AnonMoos]] 13:59, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

==Photograph==

I have removed the photo in this article; it depicts actress Clare Luce (1903-1989), not Clare Booth Luce (despite the similarity of names, they are two different women). For a 1932 photo of CBL by Van Vechten, see the Van Vechten images of her stored at the Library of Congress ... http://lcweb2.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/S?pp/ils:@FILREQ(@field(SUBJ+@od1(Luce,+Clare+Boothe,--1903-1987+))+@FIELD(COLLID+van)). I have sent an email to the Library of Congress librarian regarding this misidentification of the one image that is not correct in that link.

The librarian got back to me and said, yes, the previously used image was not of CBL but of Claire Luce (note the "i" in the first name) and that "I will send the correction to our cataloging staff for attention. Thank you for contacting us about this oversight." Nice substitution of the new image, however; much better.

In addition to the [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|boilerplate fair use template]], you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with [[WP:FU|fair use]].

Please go to [[:Image:TheWomenDVD.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline |fair use rationale]].

Clare Boothe Luce was born in March, not April as per the following: 

<s># [http://ssdi.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi Social Security Death Index]</s>
# [http://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Luce,_Clare_Boothe Her biographer], [[Sylvia Jukes Morris]] reported that: "I tracked down her B.C. and found that she was not born on April 10, 1903 but on March 10, and not on Riverside Drive but in the less genteel environs of W. 125th St. I told her about the dates and she stared at me.

On the references for the article, Sylvia Jukes Morris is credited for her 1988 article in The New York Times Magazine. However, Ms.Morris' books on the subject are not cited. Yet, when certain facts are referenced, we see "Morris, 1997, pg.191-198", etc. Can we please get a proper reference for these? 
I believe it would be, "Sylvia Jukes Morris, Rage to Fame: The Rise of Clare Boothe Luce, page 49-52, Random House,1997 " for Number 9 in the References.

== December 8, 1941 issue of Life magazine ==

The biography mentions that her profile of General MacArthur was on the newsstands the day after the Japanese attact.While probably technically accurate, it implies the magazine was distributed on the 8th.It would be more accurate to say it as on the newsstands and in the homes when Japan attacked. The date on a magazine’s cover in not the date A magazine is distributed, it is usually a date sometime after the publication. I do not know the dating system at Life in 1941, but it could be discovered. It’s more significant a coincidence if the issue was distributed before Dec. 7.
