Cast at nineteen as Humphrey Bogart's leading lady in To Have and Have Not (1944), she made a career out of the sardonic half-smile that scene demanded, working through the film noir years in The Big Sleep, Dark Passage and Key Largo alongside the man she married. She kept working into her nineties, earning a Golden Globe for The Mirror Has Two Faces (1996) and an Academy Honorary Award in 2009 as one of the last surviving stars of the Hollywood Golden Age.
