James Cagney Fast Facts:

Among his odd jobs were gift wrapper, copy boy, ticket taker, waiter, poolroom racker, female impersonator and, along with his wife, Frances, vaudevillian.
Debuted on Broadway in the chorus of 1920's Pitter-Patter and got his breakout part in the 1929 musical Penny Arcade, going on to reprise the role in the 1930 film version, Sinner's Holiday.
After his star-making turn as a gangster in the 1931 Warner Bros. film Public Enemy, he defied typecasting by giving acclaimed performances in the 1935 Shakespearean drama A Midsummer Night's Dream, the 1942 musical Yankee Doodle Dandy and the 1961 Billy Wilder satire One, Two, Three.
Fought for freedom from the Hollywood studio system, serving as president of the Screen Actors Guild and, with his brother William, forming his own production company, Cagney Productions.
In 1981, ended a 20-year retirement with a small part in Milos Forman's Ragtime, then gave just one additional performance, in the 1984 TV-movie Terrible Joe Moran, before his 1986 death from a heart attack.
