Jimmy Stewart


 Admired for his boyish charm and common man persona, Jimmy Stewart had a long and distinguished career in Hollywood. He originally attended Princeton University to study architecture, but when the Great Depression hit, he followed his friend, Henry Fonda, to Hollywood. He appeared in a bit part in 1934 but soon garnered larger roles collaborating with director Frank Capra in movies such as Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) and It’s a Wonderful Life (1946). He served in the US Army during WWII. He’s on the set here with director Alfred Hitchcock on Rear Window (1954).
