Transitioning through genres with ease, she brought comedic flair to "How to Marry a Millionaire" and earned critical acclaim for her Broadway performances, including Tony Awards for "Applause" and "Woman of the Year." Later in her career, Bacall secured an Academy Award nomination for "The Mirror Has Two Faces," solidifying her enduring legacy as one of cinema’s most iconic figures.
