Ida Lupino
Ida Lupino (4 February 1918〔Recorded in ''Births Mar 1918'' Camberwell Vol. 1d, p. 1019 (Free BMD). Transcribed as "Lupine" in the official births index〕 – 3 August 1995) was an English-American film actress, singer, director, and producer, a pioneer among women filmmakers. In her forty-eight-year career, she appeared in fifty-nine films and directed seven others, mostly in the United States, where she became a citizen in 1948. She co-wrote and co-produced some of her own films as well. She appeared in serial television programmes fifty-eight times and directed fifty other episodes. Additionally, she contributed as a writer to five films and four TV episodes.
==Early life and family==
Lupino was born in Herne Hill, London,〔 to actress Connie O'Shea (also known as Connie Emerald) and music hall entertainer Stanley Lupino, a member of the theatrical Lupino family. Lupino's birth year is 1918 and not 1914 as some biographies have claimed.〔〔Acker, Alley, ''Reel Women – Pioneers of the Cinema,'' The Continuum Publishing Company, 1991, p. 75; ISBN 0-8264-0499-5〕 Her sister, Rita (born 1920), became an actress and dancer.
During World War II, Ida Lupino served as a Lieutenant in the Women's Ambulance and Defense Corps.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nwhm.org/online-exhibits/partners/34.htm )〕 After taking a hiatus from appearing in films, she composed music for a short time, even having her piece "Aladdin's Lamp" performed by the L.A. Philharmonic in 1937. She worked briefly in radio.〔 As a girl, Ida was encouraged to enter show business by both her parents and her uncle, Lupino Lane, an acrobatic film and stage comic and director. At the age of seven Lupino wrote and starred in the play ''Mademoiselle'' for a school production.
Ida Lupino's father, Stanley, was a top name in musical comedy in England and a member of a centuries old theatrical dynasty. His wife, Connie, was also from a theatrical family. He once told young Ida, 'You're a strange, interesting girl. Your mother and I, to be honest with you, prayed...we would have a son. I think you're going to end up doing what my son would have done. You will write, direct and produce." 〔Donati, p3〕 At the age of ten, young Ida Lupino was displaying "a sophistication far beyond her years." (Donati, p. 13) Stanley Lupino was impressed by Ida's innate skill, and when his two daughters (Ida and Rita) asked him for a theatre rather than a doll house, Stanley built them the Tom Thumb Theatre which could seat fifty people. Her father influenced her greatly. Once when as a child she had stage fright he warned her that if she "ever let () fellow actors down, dry up a scene or fail to be a good trooper, deliberately or othewise, I shall disown you.〔(Donati, p14) Donati, William, Ida Lupino A Biography, University press of Kentucky, c. 1996.ISBN 0-8131-1895-6〕 In Ms. Lupino's autobiography her co-author said, "One of the very last things Ida said, while looking at a picture of her father was, 'Stanley, I hope I made you proud.'" 〔Lupino, Ida, with Mary Ann Anderson, Ida Lupino: Beyond the Camera, Bear Manor Media, Albany Georgia, c. 2011, p 140)〕
