PATRICIA NEAL
Movie still of a frightened Patricia Neal from the classic The Day
the Earth Stood Still
Inscribed photograph signed: "To/Denise/Patricia/Neal". B/w,
10x8. Movie still from 1951's The Day the Earth Stood Still. A
leading lady of American plays and film, Neal studied drama in college and
worked as a model before debuting on Broadway in The Voice of the Turtle
(1946). Her performance in the play Another Part of the Forest got the
attention of Hollywood, and she made her screen debut in the light farce John
Loves Mary (1949); that same year she was impressive in The Fountainhead
opposite Gary Cooper, whom she later said was the great love of her life.
After marrying British writer Roald Dahl in 1953, she disappeared from the
screen for several years, returning in 1957's A Face in the Crowd, after
which she was more selective in choosing her film roles. For her performance
in Hud (1963), she won the Best Actress Oscar. In 1965, she suffered
a massive series of strokes that left her confined to a wheelchair,
semi-paralyzed and nearly unable to speak; she made a remarkable recovery over
several years, returning to the screen in The Subject Was Roses
(1968), for which she received another Best Actress Oscar nomination. That same
year she was presented with the "Heart of the Year" Award by President
Johnson. Fine condition.
