Biography

American film, television, radio and stage actress, singer, pianist, and entertainer who won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in Elia Kazan's Gentleman's Agreement (1947), and was nominated for her roles in Come to the Stable (1949) and All About Eve (1950).

She was educated in Holland, France and the U.S., taking ballet and drama classes. Studying at the University of Chicago, she made her professional stage debut at 17 at the Pennsylvania stock company. Broadway followed from 1938 and included a triumphal appearance in the long running musical Oklahoma in 1943.

She signed a long term contract with 20th Century Fox making her screen debut in 1946. An intelligent and remarkably versatile actress, she made many memorable appearances in a wide range of roles, both in leads and supporting, in film, stage, radio, nightclubs, and television.

Her mother, Jean Parke, was an American portrait artist and author. Her father, Theodor Holm, was a Norwegian businessman.

Holm was Knighted by King Olav V of Norway in 1979, and in 1982 she was named by President Reagan to the National Council for the Arts. The following year was appointed chairman of the New Jersey Motion Picture and Television Development Commission.

Holm's first husband was director Ralph Nelson and her fourth husband was actor Wesley Addy (b. 4 August 1913, Omaha, Nebraska). At age 85, the actress married Frank Basile, a 41-year-old opera singer, in New York City on 29 April 2004. After a four-year courtship, they invited a judge to perform the wedding ceremony in front of 300 friends at Sardi’s restaurant.

Celeste Holm died at her Manhattan apartment in new York City at 3:30 AM on 15 July 2012, aged 95, two weeks after having been hospitalized for dehydration following a fire in her building and two days after suffering a heart attack.
