Biography

American actor known as "The Great Profile." He made his Broadway debut in 1903, but found fame in silent films and talkies, including "Grand Hotel," 1932 and "Romeo and Juliet," 1936. His autobiography, "Confessions of an Actor," was published in 1926 and a second book, "We Three," about himself, Ethel and Lionel. His life story is the subject of the film "Good Night Sweet Prince," released in 1944.

In his 50s, he was already suffering from lapses of memory, often resorting to reading his lines from cue cards. Compounding his problems were the memories of four unsuccessful marriages and countless romantic scandals. A serious alcoholic, who had begun his drinking career in his early teens, Barrymore died of alcohol abuse on 5/29/1942, Hollywood.
