 About Katharine Hepburn 关于凯瑟琳·赫本

     Katharine Houghton Hepburn was an American actress of film, stage, and television. Raised in Connecticut by wealthy parents, Hepburn turned to acting after graduation. Favorable reviews of her work on stage in 1932 brought her to the notice of Hollywood. After a few early film successes, including her first Academy Award, for Morning Glory, Hepburn endured a string of flops, which led to her being voted "box office poison". She arranged with playwright Philip Barry to write a play with her in mind, one that smoothed over her prickly public image. This play, The Philadelphia Story, turned out to be a huge success on Broadway. Securing the film rights for herself with the help of Howard Hughes, Hepburn sold them to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer on the condition that she reprise her leading role as Tracy Lord. The hit film adaptation revived her flagging career.
     Throughout her six-decade career, Hepburn co-starred with screen legends including Cary Grant (Bringing Up Baby, Holiday, The Philadelphia Story), Humphrey Bogart (The African Queen), John Wayne (Rooster Cogburn), Laurence Olivier (Love Among the Ruins) and Henry Fonda (On Golden Pond). Her most successful pairing was with Spencer Tracy, with whom she made a string of hit pictures, starting with 1942's Woman of the Year. The last of their nine films together was Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967), which was completed shortly before Tracy's death.
     Hepburn holds the record for the most Best Actress Oscar wins with four out of 12 nominations. She won an Emmy Award in 1976 for her lead role in Love among the Ruins, and was nominated for four other Emmys, two Tony Awards and eight Golden Globes. In 1999, she was ranked by the American Film Institute as the greatest female star in the history of American cinema.
     赫本在银幕上饰演的角色通常都是强烈自信,敢讲真话的独立女性,而走下银幕的她喜欢穿休闲短裤,讨厌长袜和紧身的衣服,她也讨厌化妆,"我有很多雀斑,管它呢"。她简朴的风格倒使她成为现代人的偶像,以叛逆著称的芭芭拉·史翠珊和麦当娜便是以她为楷模的。她拒绝饰演平庸、颓废的角色,她不喜欢也不愿意去讨好媒体,这个举动在好莱坞的黄金时期可是件了不得的事件。因此她常常被媒体描绘为好斗的势利女人,她早期的绰号是"傲慢自大的凯瑟琳"。在1991年她那本畅销的名为《我》的自传中,她为此解释道,"我并不傲慢自大,我只是对于常识有着良好的判断力,仅此而已。"
