As stage actress "Alexis
Smith," she was signed to a contract by Warner Brothers Studios in
Hollywood after being seen in a play. Her earliest film roles were
uncredited bit parts and it took several years for her career to gain
momentum, but her appearance in The Constant Nymph was well
received and led to bigger parts. During the forties she appeared opposite
some of the most popular male stars of the day such as Errol Flynn in San
Antonio (1945), Humphrey Bogart in The Two Mrs. Carrolls
(1947), and Cary Grant in Night and Day (1946).
Some of her other films include Rhapsody
In Blue (1945), Of Human Bondage (1946), The Two Mrs.
Carrolls, (1946) and The Young Philadelphians (1959).
She made the cover of the May 3, 1971 issue
of Time
magazine with the announcement that she would be starring in the
Hal Prince Broadway production of Follies. In 1972 she won a Tony
Award for "Best Actress in a Musical" for her performance.
Almost twenty years later she would be nominated for an Emmy Award for a
guest appearance in the television sitcom Cheers in 1990.
Alexis Smith was married to the actor Craig
Stevens from 1944 until her death in Los Angeles, California from brain
cancer.
Her final film, The Age of Innocence
(1993) was released shortly after her death.
