Biography
Born in a small town outside Berlin, her father was a police
lieutenant and imbued in her a military attitude to life. Marlene
was known in school for 'bedroom eyes' and her first affairs were
at this stage in her life - a professor at the school was
terminated. She entered the cabaret scene in 1920s Germany, first
as a spectator then as a cabaret singer. In 1924 she married, and
although she and Rudy lived together only 5 years they remained
married until his death. She was in over a dozen silent films in
increasingly important roles. In 1929 she was seen in a Berlin
cabaret by 'Josef von Sternberg' (qv) and after a screen test
captured the role of the cabaret singer in _Blaue Engel, Der
(1930)_ (qv) (and became von Sternberg's lover). With the success
of this film, von Sternberg immediately took her to Hollywood,
introducing her to the world in _Morocco (1930)_ (qv), and signing
an agreement to produce all her films. A series of successes
followed, and Marlene became the highest paid actress of her time,
but her later films in the mid part of the decade were critical and
popular failures. She returned to Europe at the end of the decade,
with a series of affairs with former leading men (she had a
reputation of romancing her co-stars), as well as other prominent
artistic figures. In 1939 an offer came to star with 'James
Stewart' (qv) in a western, and after initial hesitation she
accepted. The film was _Destry Rides Again (1939)_ (qv) - the siren
of film could also be a comedienne and a remarkable comeback was
reality. She toured extensively for the allied effort in WW II (she
had become a United States citizen), and after the war limited her
cinematic life. But a new career as a singer and performer
appeared, with reviews and shows in Las Vegas, touring theatricals,
and even Broadway. New success was accompanied by a too close
acquaintance with alcohol, until falls in performance eventually
resulted in a compound fracture of the leg. Although the last 13
years of her life were spent in seclusion in her apartment in
Paris, with the last 12 years in bed, she had withdrawn only from
public life and maintained active telephone and correspondence
contact with friends and associates.
