They teased her about her ears: they stuck out lik e Dumbo’s. Or, as Hollywood rumors had it, they st uck out like Clark Gable’s. Ms. Lewis’s mother dre ssed her in bonnets to hide them. When Ms. Lewis w as 7 her ears were surgically altered to make them less prominent. Until Ms. Lewis, as an adult, confronted her years later, Young did not acknowledge that Ms. Lewis w as her biological daughter, or that Gable was Ms. Lewis’s father. When Young married and had two chi ldren with Tom Lewis, a radio producer, Judy took his name but remained the family’s "adopted" daugh ter. And though conceding the story privately to her da ughter — and later to the rest of her family — You ng remained mum publicly all her life, agreeing to acknowledge the facts only in her authorized biog raphy, "Forever Young," and only on the condition that it be published after her death. She died in 2000. But Ms. Lewis revealed the story of her parentage in her own memoir, "Uncommon Knowledge," in 1994. She described feeling a powerful sense of alienati on as a child. "It was very difficult for me as a little girl not to be accepted or acknowledged by my mother, who, to this day, will not publicly ack nowledge that I am her biological child," she said in an interview that year. After Ms. Lewis released the memoir, her mother ref used to speak to her for three years. The lightning bolt that gave Ms. Lewis the first h int about her parentage came during an identity cr isis before her wedding day. Two weeks before her marriage in 1958, Ms. Lewis told her fiance, Tom T inney, that she did not understand her confusing r elationship with her mother and that she did not k now who her father was. "I can’t marry you," she s
aid she told him. "I don’t know anything about mys elf." Mr. Tinney could offer little guidance about her m other, she wrote, but about her father’s identity he was clear. "It’s common knowledge, Judy," he said. "Your fathe r is Clark Gable." She had no inkling, she wrote. In interviews after her book was published, Ms. Le wis was philosophical about the secrecy in which s he grew up. If Young and Gable had acknowledged he r in 1935, she said, "both of them would have lost their careers." Much of Ms. Lewis’s account was painful to recall, she said. She quoted Young as saying, "And why sh ouldn’t I be unhappy?," explaining her decision to give birth. "Wouldn’t you be if you were a movie star and the father of your child was a movie star and you couldn’t have an abortion because it was a mortal sin?" Young was a Roman Catholic. After graduating from Marymount, a girls’ Catholic school, Ms. Lewis left Los Angeles to pursue acti ng in New York. She was a regular on one soap oper a, "The Secret Storm," from 1964 to 1971, and had featured parts on numerous others. She appeared in several Broadway plays, produced television shows , and in her mid-40s decided to return to school. She earned a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degr ee in clinical psychology from Antioch University in Los Angeles, and became a licensed family and c hild counselor in 1992. Ms. Lewis, who was a clinical psychologist special izing in foster care and marriage therapy, died of
