BIOGRAPHY OF HUMPHREY BOGART
Actor. Son of a Dutch-born surgeon and magazine illustrator, there is a dispute over his actual date of birth. Although the date of January 23, 1900 is the most accepted, there is evidence that he was born on December 25, 1899. This would appear from his New York birth certificate, the announcement of his birth in the local newspaper of January 10, 1900, and the censuses of June 1900 and April 1910 (in which he is 10 and not 11). There are also those who claim that everything was edited by the majors to make his birth more legendary. As a child he became the symbolic face of Mellin, thanks to a portrait made by his mother. He attended Trinity School in New York and then was enrolled at the Philips Academy in Andover to prepare for medical studies. Expelled from school for indiscipline, at eighteen he enlisted in the Navy and participated in the First World War on the steamship Leviathan crossing the ocean about fifteen times. And it is precisely here that he gets the wound on his upper lip that will leave a scar and a slight paralysis that will give his face that characteristic grin.Since 1920 he has dedicated himself to the theater and obtains a resounding success playing the role of Duke in 1934 on Broadway Mantee in “The Petrified Forest” by Robert E. Sherwood, and his first major film will be, in 1936, the film version of this work. Until 1940 he will always be assigned the same roles of ruthless and ferocious criminal until “A bullet for Roy” (High Sierra) by Raoul Walsh, in 1941, marked a turning point in his career and launched him among the stars of Hollywood. Michael Curtiz’s “Casablanca” made him the new romantic hero, while Howard Hawks’ “To have and have not” brought him love as well as success. It is on the set of this film that he meets, in fact, the New Yorker Betty Perske, whom the director H. Hawks had renamed Lauren Bacall. It was love at first sight that brought them to the altar on May 21, 1944 at Malabar Farm, in the ranch of the writer and actor Louis Bromfield. Together they will have two children, Stephen and Leslie, they will make a series of films, and she, beautiful and disturbing, is just the ideal partner for “Bogey”. (He had been married three times before meeting Bacall: in 1926 with Helen Menken, in 1928 with Mary Philips and in 1938 with Mayo Methot. The latter out of jealousy of Ingrid Bergman at the time of “Casablanca” threw him a knife in the back.) With Lauren Bacall he had two children: Stephen and Leslie. In 1947 he founded his own production company, Santana. In 1951 he received his only Oscar for the interpretation of Charlie Allnut in “The Queen of Africa “(African Queen) by John Huston alongside Katherine Hepburn. In 1956 he fell ill with throat cancer, died in Hollywood on January 14, 1957. He is buried in the” Garden of Memory, Colombarium of eternal light “in Forest Lawn, Glandale, California.
