Humphrey Bogart was an American screen actor best remembered for his roles in classic films like Casablanca, The Maltese Falcon, and The African Queen. He was born into a rich New York City family. Despite his parents' best intentions, he showed little interest in his education and was eventually dismissed from school for misbehavior. He joined the US Navy since he didn't know what else to do and then worked odd jobs until getting hired as a stage manager. He began obtaining modest acting gigs on Broadway in the early 1920s and progressed to starring roles by the middle of the decade. After the stock market crisis of 1929, he was compelled to relocate to Hollywood, where he faced another enormous job. He was first typecast as a mobster in B-grade films, but perseverance and hard work eventually triumphed. By the beginning of the 1940s, he had established himself as a leading man. He began to deliver hits after hits at this point. Many of his later works became movie classics, and he became a living legend.
He married his co-star and fourth wife, actress Lauren Bacall in 1945 and they remained together until his death. He was the father to two children. His father was Dr. Belmont Deforest Bogart, and his mother was Maud Humphrey. Bogart is the Dutch word for orchard.
