Lauren Bacall, sultry-voiced actress, dead at 89 The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – Lauren Bacall, the slinky, sultry-voiced actress who created on-screen magic with Humphrey Bogart in “To Have and Have Not”

and “The Big Sleep” and offscreen magic in one of Hollywood’s most storied marriages, died Tuesday at age 89. Bacall, whose long career brought two Tonys and a special Oscar, died in New York.

The managing partner of the Humphrey Bogart Estate, Robbert J.F. de Klerk, said that Bacall died at home, but declined to give further details. Bacall’s son Stephen Bogart confirmed his mother’s death to de Klerk.

She was among the last of the old-fashioned Hollywood stars and her legend, and the legend of “Bogie and Bacall” started almost from the moment she appeared on screen. Her sly glance, with chin down

and eyes raised, added to her fame; she was nicknamed “The Look.” Bogart and Bacall married amid headlines in 1945. Their marriage lasted until his death from cancer in 1957.
