James Cagney was a legendary actor from the 1930s to the 1980s. He was a huge success in crime movies in the early 1930s (almost always playing a gangster), and that unfortunately typecast him in those roles, but he continually fought against it, and he made several wonderful non-gangster movies as well. Some of his movies include: The Public Enemy, Yankee Doodle Dandy (winner of the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), White Heat, Ragtime, Angels With Dirty Faces (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), The Roaring Twenties, One, Two, Three, Love Me Or Leave Me (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film) and scores of others! He retired from show business completely in 1961, but he was coaxed out of retirement to appear in Milos Formal's Ragtime in 1981. He passed away in 1986 at the age of 86.

And now you can see headshots of James Cagney in our gallery, Through The Years: James Cagney (from 1930 to 1984)! AND Joe E. Brown was a very popular actor in slapstick comedies from the 1920s to the 1960s. He made a very long series of highly successful comedies from the late 1920s through the late 1930s, and then resurfaced in 1959 with a very memorable role in "Some Like It Hot" and he had a memorable cameo role in "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World". Prior to his film career, he worked in vaudeville, the circus, and even as a baseball player! He was asked to join the New York Yankees, but he declined in order to focus on his career in entertainment. Interestingly, he played a baseball player in 1933's "Elmer, the Great". Brown passed away in 1973 at the age of 80.
