referred to as "The First Lady of the American Screen," Bette Davis created a new kind of screen heroine. She was a liberated woman in an industry dominated by men. She was known as an actress that could play a variety of difficult and powerful roles, and because of this she set a new standard for women on the big screen. Independent off-screen as well, her battles with studio bigwigs were legendary. With a career spanning six decades, few in the history of film rival her longevity and appeal. <br /><br />Bette Davis was born Ruth Davis on April 5, 1908 in Lowell, Massachusetts. Just before her tenth birthday, Bette's father, Harlow, left the family. Although she had little money, her mother, Ruthie, sent Bette and her sister to boarding school. Upon graduating Cushing Academy, Bette enrolled in John Murray Anderson's Dramatic School. In 1929, she made her Broadway debut in "Broken Dishes." She also landed a role in "Solid South." In 1930, she moved to Hollywood to screen test for Universal. <br /><br />Six small films later, Bette's contract with Universal was not renewed. She wanted to go back to Broadway, but a phone call from Warner Brothers quickly changed her mind. In 1932, she signed a seven-year contract with Warner Brothers. The film "The Man Who Played God" (1932) landed Bette on the path to stardom. She was a smash when she was lent out to RKO for the role of Mildred in "Of Human Bondage" (1934), her first critically acclaimed hit. Her role in "Dangerous" (1935) led to her nomination for a Best Actress Oscar. She became the first Warner Brothers actress to win the coveted award. <br /><br />Despite her success, Warner Brothers continued to offer Bette unsatisfactory roles. In 1936, she challenged the studio by going to England to make pictures. Jack Warner sued her, and she was forced to honor her contract. Upon her return, however, Bette was offered a new contract and better roles. In 1939, Bette won her second Oscar for "Jezebel" (1938). She also received Oscar nominations the next five years in a row. <br /><br />Although she earned a reputation for being difficult to work with, Bette set a new precedent for women. By 1942, she was the highest paid woman in America. Bette contributed to the war effort by helping to organize the Hollywood Canteen during World War II for soldiers passing through Los Angeles. Inspired by New York's Stage Door Canteen, Bette transformed a once-abandoned nightclub into an inspiring entertainment facility. "There are few accomplishments in my life that I am sincerely proud of. The Hollywood Canteen is one of them," Bette later commented. In 1980, she was awarded the Distinguished Civilian Service Medal, the Defense Department's highest civilian award, for running the Hollywood Canteen. <br /><br />Bette made a roaring comeback with her role as Margo Channing in "All About Eve" (1950), and she received her eighth Academy Award nomination. Her career was resuscitated again in 1962 with "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?" Soon after, Bette began her second career as a horror maven and continued to welcome new opportunities with television appearances. In 1987, Bette played a blind woman in "The Whales of August," co-starring Lillian Gish. <br /><br />Davis's personal life was as dramatic as her acting. She was married four times. She had a daughter, B.D., with her third husband, William Grant Sherry. She adopted two children, Margot and Michael, while married to her fourth husband, Gary Merrill. <br /><br />With a career total of more than 100 films, Bette changed the way Hollywood looked at actresses. In 1977, she was the first woman to be honored with the American Film Institute's Lifetime Achievement Award. She was also the first woman to be president of the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences. At the age of 75, Bette had a mastectomy due to breast cancer. Nine days later, she suffered a stroke. Despite her failing health, she continued to act until her death. Bette passed away October 6, 1989 in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France. <br /><br />Michael Merrill, Bette's son, and Kathryn Sermak, Bette's personal assistant and friend, are now the executors of her estate. In her memory, they have created The Bette Davis Foundation, which provides financial assistance to promising young actors and actresses. Meryl Streep received the first Bette Davis Lifetime Achievement Award at Boston University in 1998.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1'

/>Academy Awards and nominations<br /><br /><br />Bette Davis became the first woman to secure 10 nominations for the Best Actress Oscar, and in the intervening years, only Katharine Hepburn and Meryl Streep have surpassed this figure.<br />Steven Spielberg purchased Davis's Oscars for Dangerous (1935) and Jezebel (1938) when they were offered for auction, and returned them to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.<br /><br /><br />1962: Nominated for What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?<br />1952: Nominated for The Star<br />1950: Nominated for All About Eve<br />1944: Nominated for Mr. Skeffington<br />1942: Nominated for Now, Voyager<br />1941: Nominated for The Little Foxes<br />1940: Nominated for The Letter<br />1939: Nominated for Dark Victory<br />1938: Won for Jezebel<br />1935: Won for Dangerous<br /><br />1934: Davis's performance in Of Human Bondage (1934) was widely acclaimed and when she was not nominated for an Academy Award, several influential people mounted a campaign to have her name included. The Academy relaxed its rules for that year only to allow for the consideration of any performer nominated in a write-in vote. Therefore any performance of the year was technically eligible for consideration. Though some sources incorrectly attribute this as a nomination for Davis, it is not considered to be a nomination by the Academy.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2253262709438106054-1359476034156234543?l=shediditthehardway.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/Q1kqNS5UGqmY4mtfs00p6SuQHfk/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/Q1kqNS5UGqmY4mtfs00p6SuQHfk/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/Q1kqNS5UGqmY4mtfs00p6SuQHfk/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/Q1kqNS5UGqmY4mtfs00p6SuQHfk/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MissBetteDavis/~4/GaWnjS1GkHQ" height="1" width="1"/>shediditthehardway.blogspot.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09264742996054304425noreply@blogger.com0http://shediditthehardway.blogspot.com/2007/04/awards.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2253262709438106054.post-57232753299800002642007-04-28T00:22:00.000-07:002007-04-28T00:23:59.546-07:002007-04-28T00:23:59.546-07:00<a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_S-TUYd2GPGk/RjL2UXyLawI/AAAAAAAAAAM/LFJFd-u-TEI/s1600-h/photo032.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_S-TUYd2GPGk/RjL2UXyLawI/AAAAAAAAAAM/LFJFd-u-TEI/s200/photo032.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5058376161332783874" /></a><br />Year Film<br />1989 Wicked Stepmother<br />1987 The Whales of August<br />1986 As Summer Die<br />1984 Murder with Mirrors<br />1983 Right of Way<br />1982 A Piano for Mrs. Cimino<br />Little Gloria<br />Hotel<br />1981 Family Reunion<br />1980 The Watcher in the Woods<br />White Mama<br />Skyward<br />1979 Strangers: The Story of a Mother and a Daughter<br />1978 Death on the Nile<br />Return from Witch Mountain<br />The Dark Secret of Harvest Home<br />1976 Burnt Offerings<br />The Disappearance of Aimee<br />1973 Scream, Pretty Peggy<br />1972 The Scientific Cardplayer<br />Connecting Rooms<br />Madame Sin<br />The Judge and Jake Wyler<br />1971 Bunny O'Hare<br />1968 The Anniversary<br />1965 The Nanny<br />1964 Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte<br />Where Love Has Gone<br />The Empty Canvas<br />Dead Ringer<br />1962 Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?<br />1961 Pocketful of Miracles<br />1959 The Scapegoat<br />John Paul Jones<br />1957 Stranded<br />1956 Storm Center<br />The Catered Affair<br />1955 The Virgin Queen<br />1952 Phone Call from a Stranger<br />Another Man's Poison<br />The Star<br />1951 Payment on Demand<br />1950 All About Eve<br />1949 Beyond the Forest<br />1948 June Bride<br />Winter Meeting<br />1946 Deception<br />A Stolen Life<br />1945 The Corn is Green<br />1944 Mr. Skeffington<br />Hollywood Canteen<br />1943 Old Acquaintance<br />Watch on the Rhine<br />Thank Your Lucky Stars<br />1942 Now, Voyager<br />In This Our Life<br />1941 The Little Foxes<br />The Bride Came C.O.D.<br />The Great Lie<br />The Man Who Came to Dinner<br />Shining Victory<br />1940 The Letter<br />All This, and Heaven Too<br />1939 Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex<br />The Old Maid<br />Juarez<br />Dark Victory<br />A Day at Santa Anita<br />1938 The Sisters<br />Jezebel<br />1937 It's Love I'm After<br />That Certain Woman<br />Kid Galahad<br />Marked Woman<br />1936 Satan Met a Lady<br />The Golden Arrow<br />The Petrified Forest<br />1935 Dangerous<br />Special Agent<br />Front Page Woman<br />The Girl from 10th Avenue<br />Bordertown<br />A Dream Comes True<br />1934 Housewife<br />Of Human Bondage<br />Fog Over Frisco<br />Jimmy the Gent<br />Fashions of 1934<br />The Big Shakedown<br />1933 Bureau of Missing Persons<br />Ex-Lady<br />The Working Man<br />Parachute Jumper<br />20,000 Years in Sing Sing<br />1932 Three on a Match<br />Cabin in the Cotton<br />The Rich Are Always with Us<br />So Big<br />The Man Who Played God<br />Hell's House<br />The Menace<br />The Dark Horse<br />1931 Waterloo Bridge<br />Seed<br />Bad Sister<br />Way Back Home<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2253262709438106054-5723275329980000264?l=shediditthehardway.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/s4-gDjDp_XiG2MWaMb81VXrkLIA/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/s4-gDjDp_XiG2MWaMb81VXrkLIA/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/s4-gDjDp_XiG2MWaMb81VXrkLIA/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/s4-gDjDp_XiG2MWaMb81VXrkLIA/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MissBetteDavis/~4/bF-QL1jLeAk" height="1" width="1"/>shediditthehardway.blogspot.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09264742996054304425noreply@blogger.com0http://shediditthehardway.blogspot.com/2007/04/films.html
