Lauren Bacall, who memorably told Humphrey Bogart how to whistle in her 1944 movie debut -- “You just put your lips together and blow” -- and decades later won two Tony Awards in Broadway plays, has died. She was 89.
She died yesterday, according to an e-mailed statement from Robbert de Klerk, a co-managing partner at the Humphrey Bogart Estate with Bacall’s son, Stephen Bogart.
