Young Age Chaplin




Thought of by many as the greatest comedian of all time, Charles Spencer Chaplin was born in London, England on 16 April 1889.







Charles Chaplin's parents, Charles and Hannah Chaplin, were music hall entertainers. His first stage appearance, at age five, was singing a song in place of his mother who had become ill. At eight he toured in a musical, "The Eight Lancaster Lads". Nearly 11, he appeared in "Giddy Ostende" at London's Hippodrome.

Charlie Chaplin Gets a Hero's Welcome, 1972


After 20 years of exile over his leftist politics and half a century after his landmark silent comedies, Chaplin returns to America for an Honorary Oscar and an emotional standing ovation.



In 1972 he was honored with an Academy Award for his "incalculable effect in making motion pictures the art form of the century."





He authored two autobiographical books, "My Autobiography" in 1964 and its companion volume, "My Life in Pictures" in 1974. Chaplin died of natural causes on December 25, 1977 at his home in Switzerland.
