OCR: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ Bergman, Ingrid Ingrid Bergman "People saw me in 'Joan of Arc' and declared me a saint. I'm not. I'm just a woman, another human being." These were Ingrid Bergman's words when, in 1949, she left her first husband, dentist Peter Lindstrom, for Italian film director Roberto Rossellini. By then she was one of Hollywood's biggest female stars, her special blend of innocence, pathos, and Swedish "wholesomeness" radiating from films such as "Casablanca" (1943) and "For Whom the Bell Tolls" (1943). Her career suffered when she was denounced in the U.S. Senate and criticized as a "free-love cultist." But it revived in 1957 when she won her second Oscar, with "Anastasia," and in 1958 when she starred as missionary Gladys Aylward in "Inn of the Sixth Happiness." Ingrid Bergman, Although she made films for Hollywood, Swedish film star, she also enjoyed working with international 1915-82 directors such as Jean Renoir and Ingmar Bergman. A dedicated actress who conveyed integrity in every role, she was mourned by thousands when she died, age 67, after a seven-year battle with cancer. CHRONOLOGY
