Blanche Barrow was the wife of Marvin "Buck" Barrow and a member of the Barrow Gang that was active during the early 1930s during the Great Depression. Blanche was present at the shootout which resulted in the Barrow Gang becoming nationally recognized fugitives. She only spent four months with the gang and later testified that she accompanied the gang solely to be with her husband. Blanche was proud of Buck for finishing his prison sentence, but she was disappointed when he fell right back into a life of crime shortly after his release. In 1933, the gang was involved in a shoot-out, and despite objecting to his life of crime, Blanche helped Clyde drag her husband back into the car after he was shot in the head by police. Buck barely survived, and Blanche sustained severe injuries to her eyes when police shot at the car, shattering the windows. Soon after, another shootout led to the arrest of Blanche and Buck. For remaining faithful to Buck, Blanche served six years in prison and suffered permanent visual impairment. Buck passed away in the hospital before he could be sentenced. After her release, Blanche remarried and lived the rest of her life in peace. She married Eddie Frasure in 1940, and he died in 1969. Blanche died from cancer on December 24, 1988, and was buried in Dallas.
