Could James Garner who co-starred with Bacall a number of times, the first of 3? He died 3 weeks ago.

I have a very distant connection to her.

A cousin of mine, character actor Harry Guardino (RIP), starred in Woman of the Year with Lauren Bacall on Broadway. Harry was well known in Hollywood, usually playing tough guys, cops, etc. He was a cop in Dirty Harry, for example. I never met him but his father and my grandfather were first cousins and extremely close.

I'll always remember Bacall's cameo in an episode of the final season of the Sopranos. She played herself and was beaten up by Christopher and Little Carmine; they stole her gift basket from an awards show and sped off.

Great call, Cherie! We have a winner!

Let's hope so.

If I'm not mistaken, wasn't she 19 when she met Bogey, who was 45 at the time?

Wonder how the modern media would treat a marriage like that these days.

I believe that is correct. He must have been loving that as she was smoking hot back then. I doubt it would be a huge deal these days as Hollywood types do some strange things dating and marriage wise. I wonder how it was received back then. If you are Bogey obviously you don't give a damn what people were thinking.

Some of the greats passing on. Sad. Lauren was an awesome actress. No more passing please.

If you never saw Lauren Bacall perform, check out this video where she sang to Lenny Bernstein at his 70th birthday party (when she was 64). The song "Lenny" is a parody of "Pirate Jenny" from "Threepenny Opera" (with new clever lyrics written by Stephen Sondheim). https://www.facebook.com/pages/Leonard-Bernstein/140646765284

You mean like Woody Allen 62 and Soon -Yi Preven 24 ..... oh wait that's probably not a good comparison.

Two great memory burns I'll always remember:

1. Cheryl Tiegs in a willowy white blouse and black leather pants at Studio 54 in 1979.
2. Lauren Bacall entering the Oak Bar circa 1985.

Or, Cheryl Tiegs in her fishnet bathing suit! Wish I'd been there to see your two memories.
