At first taken lightly by the critics, he received more press coverage for his romantic escapades (Clara Bow, Lupe Velez, Evelyn Brent, etc.) than for his acting in films. But he soon settled down, married socialite Veronica Balfe, who had briefly appeared in films as Sandra Shaw, and gradually developed a natural aptitude for screen acting. By the mid-30s he was generally accepted as a
e performer.His physique and nonchalant manner had been effective from the start in romantic and adventure films. Now his slightly awkward mannerisms and delayed reactions also proved to be perfect assets for screen comedy, under the guidance of such directors as Lubitsch and Capra. But above all, he remained most closely identified with his roles as a man of the American West. The diversity of his roles was reflected in two of his Oscar nominations: Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936), and The Pride of the Yankees (1942). He won his first Academy Award, as well as the New York Film Critics Award, for Sergeant York (1941).Cooper received another Oscar in 1952 for High Noon, perhaps his most memorable film, and received a Special Academy Award in the 1960 ceremony, held in April of 1961, for his many memorable screen performances and the international recognition he, as an individual, has gained for the motion picture industry. His close friend, James Stewart, accepted this last award in Cooper's behalf with tears in his eyes. He had just learned, along with a few other Cooper intimates, that the beloved star was suffering from incurable cancer. On May 13, 1961, about one month later, Gary Cooper died at 60.
