Famous Actor. Born December 25, 1899 in New York City, New York, USA Died January 14, 1957 in Los Angeles, California, USA (esophageal cancer) Birth Name Humphrey DeForest Bogart Nickname Bogie Height 5' 8" (1.73 m) Mini Bio (1) Humphrey DeForest Bogart was born in New York City, New York, to Maud Humphrey, a famed magazine illustrator and suffragette, and Belmont DeForest Bogart, a moderately wealthy surgeon (who was secretly addicted to opium). Bogart was educated at Trinity School, NYC, and was sent to Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, in preparation for medical studies at Yale. He was expelled from Phillips and joined the U.S. Naval Reserve. From 1920 to 1922, he managed a stage company owned by family friend William A. Brady (the father of actress Alice Brady), performing a variety of tasks at Brady's film studio in New York. He then began regular stage performances. Alexander Woollcott described his acting in a 1922 play as inadequate. In 1930, he gained a contract with Fox, his feature film debut in a ten-minute short, Broadway's Like That (1930), co-starring Ruth Etting and Joan Blondell. Fox released him after two years. After five years of stage and minor film roles, he had his breakthrough role in The Petrified Forest (1936) from Warner Bros. He won the part over Edward G. Robinson only after the star, Leslie Howard, threatened Warner Bros. that he would quit unless Bogart was given the key role of Duke Mantee, which he had played in the Broadway production with Howard. The film was a major success and led to a long-term contract with Warner Bros. From 1936 to 1940, Bogart appeared in 28 films, usually as a gangster, twice in Westerns and even a horror film. His landmark year was 1941 (often capitalizing on parts George Raft had stupidly rejected) with roles in classics such as High Sierra (1941) and as Sam Spade in one of his most fondly remembered films, The Maltese Falcon (1941). These were followed by Casablanca (1942), The Big Sleep (1946), and Key Largo (1948). Bogart, despite his erratic education, was incredibly well-read and he favored writers and intellectuals within his small circle of friends. In 1947, he joined wife Lauren Bacall and other actors protesting the House Un-American Activities Committee witch hunts. He also formed his own production company, and the next year made The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948). Bogie won the best actor Academy Award for The African Queen (1951) and was nominated for Casablanca (1942) and as Captain Queeg in The Caine Mutiny (1954), a film made when he was already seriously ill. He died in his sleep at his Hollywood home following surgeries and a battle with throat cancer.

Lauren Bacall of New York, New York County, New York United States was born on September 16, 1924 in The Bronx, Bronx County to Wulf William Perske and Natalie Alberta Goldberg.

They had children Stephen Humphrey Bogart and Leslie Howard Schiffmann. She would also marry Jason Nelson Robards Jr. on July 4, 1961 in New York City, New York County, NY and they later divorced on January 14, 1957 in New York City. They had a child Samuel Prideaux Robards. Lauren Bacall died at age 89 years old on August 12, 2014 at The Dakota in New York, New York County, NY, and was buried on August 16, 2014 in New York.

John Wayne was born Marion Robert Morrison in Iowa, to Mary Alberta (Brown) and Clyde Leonard Morrison (1884 - 1937), a pharmacist, and Mary "Molly" Alberta Brown (1885 - 1970). He was of English, Ulster-Scots, and Irish ancestry and had one brother, Robert. Clyde developed a lung condition that required him to move his family from Iowa to the warmer climate of Southern California, where they tried ranching in the Mojave Desert. The family later moved to Glendale, California where "John" attended Glendale Union High School. After graduating from Glendale, John attended the University of Southern California on a football scholarship. Unfortunately, he broke his collarbone in a surfing accident while attending USC and lost his scholarship. That's when he turned to modeling and was soon picked up as an actor. How John Wayne saved the United States Marine Corps: After WWII concluded, the massive demobilization of servicemen to slash military spending began. Many supported an effort to completely abolish the Marine Corps. This effort was supported by the Doolittle Board, created by the Truman Administration, and headed by none other than Army General Jimmy Doolittle himself, which called for the Marine Corps to be disbanded as a separate military outfit and unified with Army units. This didn’t go over well with Marines who had sacrificed so much to the war effort and distinguished themselves for valor and bravery against all odds over and over again in those brutal years. Marines with Hollywood connections thought a movie built around the famous Joe Rosenthal photo of the Mount Suribachi flag raising at Iwo Jima could help sway public opinion. The movie was to be called “The Sands of Iwo Jima” and everyone agreed the only Hollywood star fit to play the hero Sgt. Stryker was John Wayne. John Wayne read the script, didn’t like the hero or the script and turned it down. The Marines had Marine Corps Commandant, General Clifton B. Cates board a flight from Washington to California to personally explain to John Wayne what was at stake – the very existence of the United States Marine Corps. Wayne immediately changed his mind and promised to make the movie a success. The Sands of Iwo Jima was released in 1949 and immediately became a blockbuster. Wayne was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar which quickly established him as a Number One box-office star. No politician on Capitol Hill has ever again suggested we should disband the Marine Corps. There are John Wayne critics who point out that he did not serve his country by putting himself in harm’s way.. When war broke out, Wayne tried to enlist but was rejected because of old football injuries and a bad back from years of doing his own stunts, his age (34), and his family status (father, 4 children). So he flew out to Washington to plead that he be allowed to join the Navy. No go. So he poured his heart and soul into the war effort by making inspirational war films, helping to get public support and resources for our military. He may not have seen actual combat like so many, but single handedly saving the United States Marine Corps was an accomplishment no one but John Wayne could have pulled off.
