The Humphrey Bogart Estate [tweeted](https://twitter.com/HumphreyBogart/status/499343407970787329) at 7:55 p.m. ET on Tuesday: “With deep sorrow, yet with great gratitude for her amazing life, we confirm the passing of Lauren Bacall.” Born Betty Joan Perske in the Bronx, New York City, Bacall first rose to prominence opposite Humphrey Bogart in _To Have and Have Not_ in 1944 —which featured her famously saucy line, “You know how to whistle, don’t you, Steve? You just put your lips together and … blow” — setting off one of Hollywood’s most iconic romances. Bogart and Bacall would marry in 1945, when she was 20 and he was 45, and were paired in three more movies together: _The Big Sleep_, _Dark Passage_ and _Key Largo_. Bacall’s list of co-stars reads as a who’s who of the Golden Age of Hollywood: Marilyn Monroe in _How to Marry a Millionaire,_ Gregory Peck in _Designing Women_, June Allyson in _Woman’s World_. Equally well known for her stage work, she won two Tony Awards for Best Leading Actress in a Musical: in 1970 for _Applause_, based on the Oscar-winning film _All About Eve_, and in 1981 for _Woman of the Year_. She remained active throughout into her old age, with notable appearances in 1990’s _Misery_, as James Caan’s agent, and 2003’s _Dogville_, alongside Nicole Kidman. She also made a cameo as herself on HBO’s _The Sopranos_, and recently lent her recognizably resonant voice as a guest star on an episode of _Family Guy_. Bacall remained with Bogart until his death from cancer in 1957\. They had two children together, Stephen and Leslie. She later married actor Jason Robards in 1961, but they divorced eight years later. They had one son together, the actor Sam Robards. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3105844/lauren-bacall-dies-at-89/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3105844/lauren-bacall-dies-at-89/"},"headline":"Lauren Bacall Dies at 89","datePublished":"2014-08-13T00:45:53.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T08:00:53.199Z","description":"\"You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve?
