Gary Cooper (May 7, 1901 � May 13, 1961) was a two-time Academy
Award-winning American film actor of English heritage. His career
spanned from the 1920s until the year of his death, and saw him make
one hundred films. He was renowned for his quiet, understated acting
style and his stoic, individualistic, emotionally restrained, but at
times intense screen persona, which was particularly well suited for
the many Westerns he made.
Cooper received five Oscar nominations for Best Actor, winning
twice. He also received an Honorary Award from the Academy in 1961. |
