On July 27, 2003, legendary comedian Bob Hope died of pneumonia at his home in Toluca Lake, California, where he had lived since 1937. He was 100 years old. When asked on his deathbed where he wanted to be buried, he reportedly told his wife, "Surprise me." She chose to have him interred in the San Fernando Mission Cemetery in Los Angeles. Bob Hope got his first taste of show business in 1915 when he won a Charlie Chaplin imitation contest. From that humble beginning, he would go on to perform in almost every medium, from the vaudeville circuit to the Broadway stage, from radio to television to movies. His career really took off when he appeared in a popular series of "Road" movies with Bing Crosby and Dorothy Lamour which included, among others, Road to Singapore (1940), Road to Morocco (1942), and Road to Rio (1947). All in all, he appeared in more than 75 movies, more than 475 television programs, and more than a thousand radio programs, but despite those remarkable figures, Bob Hope is perhaps best known for entertaining U.S. troops during wartime. His USO career spanned six decades and multiple wars including World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the 1991 Persian Gulf War. During that time he headlined nearly 60 tours and performed for millions of servicemen. Dubbed "Mr. Entertainment" and "The King of Comedy," Bob Hope has FOUR stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame -- a motion picture star, a radio star, a TV star, and a live theatre special plaque.
