Ingrid Bergman is the actress to whom Humphrey Bogart says "Here's looking at you, kid" in the 1942 film Casablanca. She came to Hollywood from Sweden in 1939 and became a tremendous star in the 1940s, starring in Gaslight (1944, with Charles Boyer), in the suspense classics Spellbound (1945, co-starring Gregory Peck) and Notorious (1946, with Cary Grant) , and playing Joan of Arc (1948). While filming Stromboli in 1949, she fell in love with director Roberto Rossellini and became pregnant by him -- despite already being married to and having a child with Dr. Peter Lindstrom. The infidelity shocked her fans. As her official website states, "She became a pariah in America virtually overnight. She was even denounced on the floor of the U.S. Senate, where she was called 'Hollywood's apostle of degradation.'" Seven years later she made a triumphant return to U.S. theaters in Anastasia (1956), for which she won an Academy Award.
