Born in Waterbury, Connecticut in 1907\u00a0to a successful New England trial lawyer, <a title=\"Rosalind Russell \" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/findresults_actor_smart.asp?search=Rosalind+Russell+\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Rosalind Russell <\/a>was well into her teens when she turned her career focus toward the stage; her parents, leery of such ambitions, only approved her entry to the American Academy of Dramatic Art in the belief she intended to teach acting. She began working in regional stock, and made her first Broadway appearance in 1930&#8217;s Garrick Gaieties.<\/p>\n<p>After years of East Coast stage work, Russell moved west and, in 1934, procured a contract with Universal Pictures, Unhappy with her treatment there, she managed to get out of the deal and arrange a successful test with MGM in short order. She made her screen debut with an other-woman role in the &#8217;34 Myrna Loy-William Powell vehicle, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D55196%20%20&amp;altid=21812\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Evelyn Prentice<\/a>. Remembering the studio&#8217;s pecking order in those early days she said, &#8220;At MGM there was a first wave of top stars, and a second wave to replace them in case they got difficult. I was second in line of defense, behind Myrna Loy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Roz&#8217;s workload over the next few years would be, by and large, similarly decorative supporting assignments: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D00862\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Forsaking All Others<\/a>\u00a0(1934), a drama\u00a0starring Clark Gable and Joan Crawford; the costume romance The Night Is Young (1934); a Philo Vance whodunit, The Casino Murder Case (1935), and China Seas (also &#8217;35), playing the second lead opposite Gable and Jean Harlow. After playing under\u00a0Harlow and William Powell in 1935&#8217;s Reckless, she landed the lead with Powell later that year in\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D08100\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Rendezvous<\/a>; both of these roles\u00a0allowed her to flex her\u00a0comedic muscles as well as her dramatic ability. Critical attention began to snowball from her loan-out to Columbia in 1936 to play\u00a0the materialistic, shrewish Craig&#8217;s Wife, and MGM thereafter showcased her in such\u00a0diverse projects as 1937&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D36494\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Night Must Fall<\/a>, with Robert Montgomery; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D25817\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Citadel<\/a> (1938), where\u00a0she helped Robert Donat discover life&#8217;s important meaning; and opposite Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D02265\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Four&#8217;s a Crowd<\/a>\u00a0(also &#8217;38).<\/p>\n<p>With the decade&#8217;s end she landed two defining roles; conniving and catty Sylvia Fowler in MGM&#8217;s all-female farce <a title=\"The Women\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D28834&amp;loc=buzzsearch\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">The Women<\/a> (1939), and\u00a0take-no-prisoners reporter Hildy Johnson of <a title=\"His Girl Friday\" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D28263&amp;loc=buzzsearch\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">His Girl Friday<\/a> (1940), giving editor\/ex-husband Cary Grant a run for his money. Russell thereafter settled into a career groove predominated by screwball comedy&#8211;1940&#8217;s Hired Wife, No Time for Comedy and This Thing Called Love; They Met in Bombay\u00a0(&#8217;41), again opposite Gable;\u00a0and 1942&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D45564\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Design for Scandal<\/a>, co-starring\u00a0Walter Pidgeon, and Take a Letter, Darling, with Fred MacMurray.\u00a0A highpoint of this period came with Columbia&#8217;s\u00a01942 film version of the stage play <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D80819&amp;altid=32045\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">My Sister Eileen<\/a>. Adapted from Ruth McKenney&#8217;s memoir of Greenwich Village life and co-starring Janet Blair as Roz&#8217;s title sibling, the audience favorite landed the performer her first Best Actress Oscar nomination.<\/p>\n<p>Through the remainder of the &#8217;40s, her Hollywood slate was still significantly marked by comedies, such as \u00a0Warner Bros.&#8217; Roughly Speaking in 1945, which remained one of the actress&#8217;s personal favorites. That same year she was a psychiatrist with no time for romance&#8211;until she&#8217;s charmed by cartoonist Lee Bowman&#8211;in She Wouldn&#8217;t Say Yes. Chances to show off her dramatic chops came courtesy of the\u00a0moving 1946 biopic Sister Kenny, about the Australian nurse who revolutionized the treatment of\u00a0polio patients, and 1947&#8217;s film translation of Eugene O&#8217;Neill&#8217;s Mourning Becomes Electra; both of these performances garnered Russell Academy Award nominations.\u00a0She was a WWII widow in the poignant drama The Guilt of Janet Ames (1947), and&#8211;after\u00a0impressing in a 1948 thriller, The Velvet Touch&#8211;got\u00a0back in touch with\u00a0her lighter side in the fun-filled Tell It to the Judge (1949), co-starring Robert Cummings and Gig Young.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_30615\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30615\" class=\"size-full wp-image-30615\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviefanfare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Rosalind-Russell-as-Auntie-Mame-1958.jpg\" alt=\"Rosalind Russell as Auntie Mame (1958)\" width=\"290\" height=\"372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Rosalind-Russell-as-Auntie-Mame-1958.jpg 290w, https:\/\/onecinephile.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Rosalind-Russell-as-Auntie-Mame-1958-233x300.jpg 233w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 290px) 100vw, 290px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-30615\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rosalind Russell as Auntie Mame (1958)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The early &#8217;50s found the maturing actress directing her energies back toward the stage, touring with Bell, Book and Candle and returning to Broadway for her Tony-winning run in Wonderful Town, the musical adaptation of My Sister Eileen. Back on the big screen, Roz shone in the service comedy <a title=\"Never Wave at a WAC \" href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D57992&amp;loc=buzzsearch\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Never Wave at a WAC <\/a>(1953) and\u00a0won rave reviews as the bitter spinster schoolteacher in William Inge&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D16889\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Picnic<\/a>\u00a0(1955), alongside top-billed William Holden and Kim Novak. She knew it was a good role and praised the author when she said, &#8220;William Inge has sisters who were schoolteachers. That helped him in writing Rosemary so perceptively.&#8221; Oddly, the actress did not let Columbia push her for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination, which many people thought she stood a good chance of winning\u00a0that year.<\/p>\n<p>It was then back to New York for perhaps her most identified characterization, the irrepressible, free-spirited socialite who brings her orphaned nephew into her unconventional orbit in Auntie Mame. She&#8217;d get another Tony nomination for her efforts, and the play&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moviesunlimited.com\/musite\/product.asp?sku=D36663\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">1958 screen adaptation<\/a> resulted in her last Best Actress Oscar nod as well. Maybe she was still in Mame mode when she quipped, &#8220;Taste. You cannot buy such a rare and wonderful thing. You can&#8217;t send away for it in a catalog. And I&#8217;m afraid it&#8217;s becoming obsolete!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Roz would retur`ng health led her to pass on Broadway&#8217;s musicalized Mame in the mid-&#8217;60s. Russell&#8217;s final big-screen turn came in 1971&#8217;s self-scripted Mrs. Pollifax-Spy, and her last performance would come in the telefilm The Crooked Hearts the following year.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps her crowning moment arrived when she received the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award at the 45th Oscar Ceremony in 1973, presented to her by longtime friend Frank Sinatra. She once said about Frank, &#8220;Ohhhh, he is quite a guy! Frank is a remarkable human being. Very colorful. He is several people, all interesting. He is a man with concern for people &#8211; not only his friends, but people he doesn&#8217;t know.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The actress&#8217; final years were marked by a prolonged struggle with breast cancer, to which she finally succumbed in 1976 at the age of 69. Before that, though, the vibrant and\u00a0beloved Russell left some expert advice for Hollywood newcomers when she confided, &#8220;It&#8217;s fine to have talent, but talent is the last of it. In an acting career, as in an acting performance, you&#8217;ve got to have vitality. The secret of successful acting is identical with a woman&#8217;s beauty secret: joy in living.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Miss Russell&#8217;s talent was evident to millions of fans.
