===========
About Humphey DeForest Bogart: This legendary actor was born on Christmas Day 1899. He therefore often
referred to himself as a last century man. His father was a Doctor and his mother (Maude Humphreys) a famous artist/illustrator. Humphrey kicked around most of his adolescent life - not knowing what to do. He had a short stint in the navy. Through friends he fumbled his way into acting. Trying his hand as a stage manager, but eventually filling in for a sick actor in an off Broadway play. The acting bug bit him hard and he spent a long time learning his craft.
At first he received some bad reviews, but Bogart did not give up. Over time and two tries at Hollywood, Humphrey eventually landed the part of Duke Mantee in "The Petrified Forest". The stage play was a major success and when Warner Brothers' Studio bought the film rights, Bogart was given the part for the film, only upon the insistence of his co-star Leslie Howard. With the success of that movie, Bogart received a standard studio contract. He then kicked around Warner Brothers for another five long years, mostly in minor parts.
In 1941, when George Raft turned down the role of detective Sam Spade in "The Maltese Falcon" remake, Bogart got the role. It sky-rocketed him to fame. Humphrey's performance was masterful and the direction by first time director John Huston crisp and succinct. It took Humphrey 13 years to finally hit stardom.
Personally after 4 failed marriages, Humphrey found the love of his life in Lauren Bacall. They were married in 1945 and within a few years had two children. Throughout Bogie's career he received four Best Actor/Oscar nominations - winning once in 1951 for his role in "The African Queen". When Bogie died in 1957 from cancer, he was only 56. In the 1960's through college and university film revivals - the cult of Humphrey Bogart was born and fostered. It created Bogart's legendary status which survives to this day.
Humphrey Bogart's filmography includes these classic films: The Petrified Forest, Dead End, High Sierra, The Maltese Falcon, Casablanca, To Have and Have Not, The Big Sleep, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, In A Lonely Place, The African Queen and The Caine Mutiny.
