Cary Grant

about

Archibald Alexander Leach (January 18, 1904–November 29, 1986), better known by his stage name Cary Grant, was an English actor who later took US citizenship. Known for his transatlantic accent, debonair demeanor and "dashing good looks", Grant is considered one of classic Hollywood's definitive leading men. He was named the second Greatest Male Star of All Time by the American Film Institute. Noted for his dramatic roles as well as screwball comedy, Grant's best-known films include Bringing Up Baby (1938), The Philadelphia Story (1940), Penny Serenade (1941), Arsenic and Old Lace (1944), Notorious (1946), To Catch a Thief (1955) and North by Northwest (1959). Nominated twice for the Academy Award for Best Actor and five times for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor, Grant was continually passed over, and in 1970 was given an Honorary Oscar at the 42nd Academy Awards. Frank Sinatra presented Grant with the award, "for his unique mastery of the art of screen acting with the respect and affection of his colleagues".
