Secret Life of Humphrey Bogart: The Early Years (1899-1931) by Darwin Porter,

Secret Life of Humphrey Bogart: The Early Years (1899-1931) by Darwin Porter,
Until recently, very little was known about the early life of Hollywood's most famous movie star. But this biography, compiled after extensive interviews with eyewitnesses, delves deep into the star's hot, horny, and formative years on Broadway and in early-Talkie Hollywood. Much is revealed about the entertainment industry of the 1920s and 1930s, when publicists from the movie studios deliberately twisted and suppressed inconvenient details about the lives of its emerging stars. One can't read a book like this without a sense of irony at how American myths are created and sustained, and a sense of admiration for the biographers who unlock the doors and windows. Illusions about the chain-smoking anti-hero with the trenchcoat might suffer in the process, but readers emerge with an understanding of who Bogart, the man, really was, the daunting odds, and the exotic temptations he faced during his struggle for survival in early Hollywood. It also examines the back-room tawdriness, blackmail, extortion, larceny, bartered sex, and sheer unadulterated pain inflicted on its players during the 1920s and 30s by America's entertainment industry. Humphrey Bogart was born in 1899 into the prosperous but dysfunctional union of a New York City doctor and a successful commercial artist and Suffragette. Both of his parents scocialized with Theodore Dreiser and a young Franklin D. Roosevelt, and both of them struggled with addictions to morphine and later, shrinking incomes. Never particularly gifted either at sports or at academics, Bogart was eventually expelled from Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachussetts. Even before his expulsion from prep school, Bogart became fascinated with Jazz Age Broadway,making friends with entertainment-industry impresarios when he was still a teenager, and developing crushes on well-known older actresses, some of whom reciprocated his attentions.
