Early lifeBorn Betty Joan Perske in the Bronx, New York City, she was the only child of Natalie Weinstein-Bacal, asecretary who later legally changed her surname to Bacall, and William Perske, who worked in sales.[1] Bacall'sparents were Jewish; her mother immigrated from Romania through Ellis Island, and her father was born in NewJersey, to parents from Poland. She is first cousin to Shimon Peres, current President of Israel Her parents divorcedwhen she was five, and she took the Romanian form of her mother's last name, Bacall.[2] Bacall no longer saw herfather and formed a close bond with her mother, whom she took with her to California when she became a moviestar.

Career

Howard Hawks and Bacall in 1943

Bacall took lessons at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts.During this time, she became a theatre usher and worked as a fashionmodel. As Betty Bacall, she made her acting debut, at age 17, onBroadway in 1942, as a walk-on in Johnny 2 X 4. According to herautobiography, she and a girlfriend won an opportunity in 1940 to meether idol Bette Davis at Davis's hotel. Years later, Davis visited Bacallbackstage to congratulate her on her performance in Applause, amusical based on Davis's turn in All About Eve. According to Bacall'sautobiography, Davis told her "You know you're the only one who canplay this role."

Bacall became a part-time fashion model. Howard Hawks' wife Nancyspotted her "in a very small picture in Vogue" (source: interview with Howard Hawks in Peter Bogdanovich's bookWho the Devil Made It, p. 327) and urged Hawks to have her take a screen test for To Have and Have Not. Hawkshad asked his secretary to find out more about her, but the secretary misunderstood and sent her a ticket toHollywood (source: interview with Howard Hawks in Peter Bogdanovich's book Who the Devil Made It, p. 327) forthe audition. He signed her up to a seven-year personal contract, brought her to Hollywood, gave her $100 a week,and began to manage her career. Hawks changed her name to Lauren Bacall. Nancy Hawks took Bacall under herwing.[3] She dressed the newcomer stylishly, and guided her in matters of elegance, manners and taste. Bacall's voicewas trained to be lower, more masculine and sexier, which resulted in one of the most distinctive voices inHollywood.[4] In the movie, Bacall takes on Nancy's nickname “Slim.”

Breakthrough

Bacall in her first movie, To Have and Have Not;Hoagy Carmichael is in the background playing

the piano

During screen tests for To Have and Have Not (1944), Bacall wasnervous. To minimize her quivering, she pressed her chin against herchest and to face the camera, tilted her eyes upward. This effectbecame known as "The Look", Bacall's trademark.[5]

On the set, Humphrey Bogart, who was married to Mayo Methot,initiated a relationship with Bacall several weeks into shooting andthey began seeing each other.

On a visit to the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. on February10, 1945, Bacall's press agent, chief of publicity at Warner Bros.Charlie Enfield, asked the 20-year-old Bacall to sit on the piano which

was being played by Vice-President of the United States Harry S. Truman. The photos caused controversy and madeworldwide headlines.

Bacall and Bogart in Dark Passage

After To Have and Have Not, Bacall was seen opposite Charles Boyerin the critically panned Confidential Agent (1945).[6] Bacall wouldstate in her autobiography that her career never fully recovered fromthis film, and that studio boss Jack Warner did not care about quality.She then appeared with Bogart in the films noir The Big Sleep (1946)and Dark Passage (1947) and John Huston's melodramatic suspensefilm Key Largo (1948) with Bogart and Edward G. Robinson. She wascast with Gary Cooper in the period drama Bright Leaf (1950).

1950s

With Kirk Douglas in Young Man with a Horn(1950)

Bacall turned down scripts she did not find interesting and therebyearned a reputation for being difficult. Yet, for her leads in a string offilms, she received favorable reviews. In Young Man with a Horn(1950), co-starring Kirk Douglas, Doris Day, and Hoagy Carmichael,Bacall played a two-faced femme fatale. This movie is oftenconsidered the first big-budget jazz film.[7] During 1951-52, Bacallco-starred with Bogart in the syndicated action-adventure radio seriesBold Venture.

Bacall starred in the CinemaScope comedy How to Marry aMillionaire (1953), a runaway hit that saw her teaming up withMarilyn Monroe and Betty Grable.[8] Billed third under Monroe andGrable, Bacall got positive notices for her turn as the witty gold-digger,Schatze Page.[9] According to her autobiography, Bacall refused thecoveted invitation from Grauman's Chinese Theatre to press her hand-and footprints in the theatre's cemented forecourt at the Los Angelespremiere of the film. She also said "Marilyn was frightened,insecure...but I couldn't dislike her. She was sweet, and she tried sohard."

Bacall, Bogart and Henry Fonda in the televisionversion of The Petrified Forest

In 1955, a live television version of Bogart's own breakthrough, ThePetrified Forest, was performed as a live installment of Producers'Showcase, a weekly dramatic anthology, featuring Bogart (nowtop-billed) as Duke Mantee, Henry Fonda as Alan, and Bacall asGabrielle, the part originally played in the 1936 movie by Bette Davis.Jack Klugman, Richard Jaeckel, and Jack Warden played supportingroles. Bogart had no problem performing his role live since he hadoriginally played the part on Broadway with the subsequent movie'sstar Leslie Howard, who had secured a film career for Bogart byinsisting that Warner Bros. cast him in the movie instead of Edward G.Robinson; Bogart and Bacall named their daughter "Leslie Howard

Bogart" in gratitude. In the late 1990s, Bacall donated the only known kinescope of the 1955 performance to TheMuseum Of Television & Radio (now the Paley Center for Media), where it remains archived for viewing in NewYork City and Los Angeles.Written on the Wind, directed by Douglas Sirk in 1956, is now considered a classic tear-jerker.[10] Appearing withRock Hudson, Dorothy Malone and Robert Stack, Bacall played a determined woman. Bacall states in herautobiography that she did not think much of the role. While struggling at home with Bogart's severe illness (cancerof the esophagus), Bacall starred with Gregory Peck in the screwball comedy Designing Woman and gained ravereviews.[11] It was directed by Vincente Minnelli and released in New York City on May 16, 1957, four months afterBogart succumbed to cancer on January 14. Bacall plays the wife of Robert Stack in the film "The Gift of Love" in1958.

1960s and 1970sBacall's movie career waned in the 1960s, and she was seen in only a handful of films. On Broadway she starred inGoodbye, Charlie (1959), Cactus Flower (1965), Applause (1970) and Woman of the Year (1981). She won TonyAwards for her performances in the latter two. The few movies Bacall shot during this period were all-star vehiclessuch as Sex and the Single Girl (1964) with Henry Fonda, Tony Curtis and Natalie Wood, Harper (1966) with PaulNewman, Shelley Winters, Julie Harris, Robert Wagner and Janet Leigh, and Murder on the Orient Express (1974),with Ingrid Bergman, Albert Finney and Sean Connery. In 1964, she appeared in two acclaimed episodes of CraigStevens's CBS drama, Mr. Broadway: first in "Take a Walk Through a Cemetery", with then husband Jason Robards,Jr. and Jill St. John, and then as Barbara Lake in "Something to Sing About", with Martin Balsam as NateBannerman.For her work in the Chicago theatre, Bacall won the Sarah Siddons Award in 1972 and again in 1984. In 1976, sheco-starred with John Wayne in his last picture, The Shootist. The two became friends, despite significant politicaldifferences between them. They had previously been cast together in 1955's Blood Alley.

Later careerDuring the 1980s and early 1990s, Bacall appeared in the poorly received star vehicle The Fan (1981), as well assome star-studded features such as Robert Altman's Health (1980), Michael Winner's Appointment with Death(1988), and Rob Reiner's Misery (1990). In 1997, Bacall was nominated for a Best Supporting Actress AcademyAward for her role in The Mirror Has Two Faces (1996), her first nomination after a career span of more than fiftyyears. She had already won a Golden Globe and was widely expected to win the Oscar, but it went instead to JulietteBinoche for The English Patient.

Bacall received the Kennedy Center Honors in 1997. In 1999, she was voted one of the 25 most significant femalemovie stars in history by the American Film Institute. Since then, her movie career has seen a new renaissance andshe has attracted respectful notices for her performances in high-profile projects such as Dogville (2003) and Birth(2004), both with Nicole Kidman. She is one of the leading actors in Paul Schrader's 2007 movie The Walker.

In March 2006, Bacall was seen at the 78th Annual Academy Awards introducing a film montage dedicated to filmnoir. She also made a cameo appearance as herself on The Sopranos, in the April 2006 episode, "Luxury Lounge",during which she was punched and robbed by a masked hoodlum played by Michael Imperioli.In September 2006, Bacall was awarded the first Katharine Hepburn Medal, which recognizes "women whose lives,work and contributions embody the intelligence, drive and independence of the four-time-Oscar-winning actress", byBryn Mawr College's Katharine Houghton Hepburn Center.[12] She gave an address at the memorial service ofArthur M. Schlesinger, Jr at the Reform Club in London in June 2007.Bacall was a spokesperson for the Tuesday Morning discount chain.
