Bergman is the actress to whom Humphrey Bogart says "Here's looking at you, kid" in the 1942 film Casablanca. She came to Hollywood from Sweden in 1939 and became a tremendous star in the 1940s, starring in Gaslight (1944, with Charles Boyer), in the suspense classics Spellbound (1945, co-starring Gregory Peck) and Notorious (1946, with Cary Grant) , and playing Joan of Arc (1948). While filming Stromboli in 1949, she fell in love with director Roberto Rossellini and became pregnant by him -- despite already being married to and having a child with Dr. Peter Lindstrom. The infidelity shocked her fans. As her official website states, "She became a pariah in America virtually overnight. She was even denounced on the floor of the U.S. Senate, where she was called 'Hollywood's apostle of degradation.'" Seven years later she made a triumphant return to U.S. theaters in Anastasia (1956), for which she won an Academy Award. She also won Oscars as best actress for Gaslight and as best supporting actress for Murder on the Orient Express (1974).
Her daughter with Rossellini is the actress and model Isabella Rossellini (co-star in David Lynch's Blue Velvet (1986)... Bergman is no relation to film director Ingmar Bergman, but he did direct her last film, 1978's Autumn Sonata... She won a posthumous Emmy Award for playing Golda Meir in the 1982 TV miniseries A Woman Called Golda.
