What made Gloria Swanson so unique?

Gloria Swanson was the first film star to marry a titled nobleman, the Marquis Henri de la Falaise, and was the first to have a child while an actress. Swanson also was one of the few stars of the silent film era to make a major comeback in a latter-day film. At age 52, she co-starred with William Holden in Billy Wilder's film noir masterpiece Sunset Boulevard (1950). She was nominated for an Oscar, and won the Golden Globe Best Actress award for her riveting performance as Norma Desmond.
