Bette Davis, full name Ruth Elizabeth Davis, is an American actress. In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked Bette Davis as the second greatest actress in Hollywood history. The first person in the history of world cinema to be nominated for 11 Oscars.
Date and Place of Birth: April 5, 1908, Lowell, Massachusetts, USA
Date and place of death: October 6, 1989, Hospital American de Paris, Neuilly-sur-Seine, France 🇺🇸
Davis was born at 22 Chester Street in the Lowell Highlands to Harlow Morrell Davis (1885-1938), a law student from Augusta, Maine, and Ruth Augusta Favor (1885-1961) from Tingsboro, Massachusetts. She had a younger sister, Barbara Harriet, who was born on October 25, 1909 at 55 Ward Street in Somerville, Massachusetts, where their father was then a patent attorney. The name "Bette", which Davis later adopted as a pseudonym, was her childhood nickname, but it was spelled "Betty".

In 1915, the parents divorced, and the Davis sisters ended up in Lanesboro in a closed school "Crestalban" with very strict rules. In 1921, the sisters and their mother moved to New York, where Ruth began working as a portrait photographer. During the same period, Davis, inspired by Honore de Balzac's novel Cousin Betta, changed the spelling of her nickname to Bette.

Davis later attended Cushing Academy and Ashburnham Boarding School, where she met her future husband Harmon Nelson.
