She was born in Paris, but came to New York City as a preteen, and went to public schools. After graduating, she appeared in more than a dozen Broadway plays, and made her first films for Paramount Pictures in their Astoria, Queens studio. She quickly became a star and was soon a major star. Some of her movies include: It Happened One Night (winner of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Midnight, The Palm Beach Story, Bluebeard's Eighth Wife, Cleopatra (the 1934 version, in the title role), Since You Went Away (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Private Worlds (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), and scores of others! She passed away in 1996 at the age of 92. Artist: Jack Lane Important Added Info: Note that Jack Lane was hired by the famous Brown Derby restaurant in the 1940s to make large caricature portraits of top Hollywood stars, and he made one larger one of each that they framed on their walls, and one small one that he kept as reference. This is the small one (on heavy art board) he created of Claudette Colbert. After Mr. Lane passed away, his family gave it to a friend of our consignor, who later gave it to our consignor.
