Humphrey Bogart
Humphrey DeForest Bogart was born in New York City, 25 December 1899. He died on 14 January 1957, in Los Angeles. In between he was an Academy Award-winning actor, a silver screen legend and the American Film Institute's Greatest Male Star Of All Time.
Wise words: "Acting is like sex: you either do it and don't talk about it, or you talk about it and don't do it. That's why I'm always suspicious of people who talk too much about either."
