Who was Humphrey Bogart? New documentary looks at the man behind the legend

Today's nepo babies typically have one parent to thank for their reflected glory. But how about if both Dad and Mom happen to be among the most famous actors in Hollywood history?

That's the case for Stephen Humphrey Bogart, 75, a retired television producer who got his name and pebble-tumbled voice from his legendary father and his hooded almond-shaped eyes from his mother, Lauren Bacall. Initially, that Bogie and Bacall parentage was something their son avoided.

"It's mind-boggling to me still that I'm the kid of these two people, maybe among the top famous couples of the 20th century," says Bogart while promoting a new documentary about his father, "Bogart: Life Comes In Flashes" (available now for home viewing from Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV and other on-demand platforms).

Humphrey DeForest Bogart was born in New York City, New York, to Maud Humphrey, a famed magazine illustrator and suffragette, and Belmont DeForest Bogart, a moderately wealthy surgeon (who was secretly addicted to opium). Bogart was educated at Trinity School, NYC, and was sent to Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, in preparation for medical studies at Yale. He was expelled from Phillips and joined the U.S. Naval Reserve. From 1920 to 1922, he managed a stage company owned by family friend William A. Brady (the father of actress Alice Brady), performing a variety of tasks at Brady's film studio in New York. He then began regular stage performances. Alexander Woollcott described his acting in a 1922 play as inadequate. In 1930, he gained a contract with Fox, his feature film debut in a ten-minute short, Broadway's Like That (1930), co-starring Ruth Etting and Joan Blondell. Fox released him after two years. After five years of stage and minor film roles, he had his breakthrough role in The Petrified Forest (1936) from Warner Bros. He won the part over Edward G. Robinson only after the star, Leslie Howard, threatened Warner Bros. that he would quit unless Bogart was given the key role of Duke Mantee, which he had played in the Broadway production with Howard.
