- Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler (November 9, 1914 - January 19, 2000) was an Austro-Hungarian-born American actress and inventor. She was a film star during Hollywood's Golden Age.
After a brief early film career in Czechoslovakia, including the controversial Ecstasy (1933), she fled from her first husband, a wealthy Austrian ammunition manufacturer, and secretly moved to Paris. Traveling to London, she met Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio head Louis B. Mayer, who offered her a movie contract in Hollywood. She became a film star with her performance in Algiers (1938). Her MGM films include Lady of the Tropics (1939), Boom Town (1940), H.M. Pulham, Esq. (1941), and White Cargo (1942). Her greatest success was as Delilah in Cecil B. DeMille's Bible-inspired Samson and Delilah (1949). She also acted on television before the release of her final film, The Female Animal (1958). She was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1960.
At the beginning of World War II, she and avant-garde composer George Antheil developed a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes that used spread spectrum and frequency hopping technology to defeat the threat of jamming by the Axis powers.
Hedy was married and divorced six times and had three children. In the last decades of her life, the telephone became her only means of communication with the outside world, even with her children and close friends. She often talked up to six or seven hours a day on the phone, but she spent hardly any time with anyone in person in her final years. Hedy died in Casselberry, Florida, on January 19, 2000, of heart disease. She was 85 years old. - Розваги
Talk about beauty AND brains! I wonder, if Hedy was born today, if she would still be an actress. I could see her winning a scholarship to MIT and doing all kinds of remarkable things!
She is quoted as saying that being beautiful was a curse; and that she wanted to make something more of her life. She certainly did.
She went from a child to an adult so quickly. It's a shame she probably never really had the chance to enjoy her teenage years. Beautiful in her days too bad she underwent cosmetic surgery.
Thank you! ❤❤ the beautiful mother of technology! I love you Hedy! ❤
Hedy Lamarr is in the holy trinity of most beautiful actresses ever: Hedy, Ava Gardner, and Marilyn Monroe. 😍😍😍
The queen mother is so cute
Great actress. She was so cute!, specially min. 2:29 ❤
She was in many ways a remarkable woman with a stunning intellect
Bellísima
Wow! At a young age she already looked and dressed so mature! She lived a full life! I’ve wasted mine! Sad she remained alone her last decade. It’s no wonder she had heart disease. Alone even tho she talked on the phone. People need hugs everyday! It’s good for the heart
She'd get it. Right on the drawing board.
Eine so schöne Wienerin !!!
I think the number 25 was Vivian Leigh
No, that's Hedy with Clark Gable in a still promo photo for the 1940 film "Comrade X".
Her father was ukrainian, he lived in Lviv.
He's Jewish, they are always so freaking smart.
Actually LEMBERG was part of Austro-Hungaria, so it wasn't Ukrainia then. Hedy Lamarrs parents spoke german, so they are best described as Austrian.
@@hckroess it was occupation

No it wasn't! You confuse it with Nazi-Germany. The Austro-Hungarian empire existed from 1867 to 1918!
