46: Lita Ford

Here’s someone else who has SEEN IT ALL. She was first recruited by Kim Fowley to join the all-femal band the Runaways and in 1979 she headed out on her own. In 1980, after the breakup of the Runaways, she signed with Mercury Records and released her solo debut: Out For Blood. From there, she continued until 1995, when she went on a hiatus. In 2008, she came back with a vengeance and hasn’t let up since.

Thanks as always to Anastasia Vishnevsky for our theme music.
