"James Stewart\nThe Star of It's a Wonderful Life and The Philadelphia Story in Beverly Hills\nThe Stewart home in Beverly Hills.\n\nThe house on Roxbury Drive in Beverly Hills, where actor James Stewart and his wife Gloria lived for nearly 50 years, had changed little since he bought it in 1949.\nThe entrance hall of the Stewart home.\n\nA profile sketch of Pie, the horse Stewart rode in Broken Arrow (1950) and How the West Was Won (1962) hangs in the entrance hall. Although Stewart seemed completely natural on screen, Alfred Hitchcock, who directed him in Rear Window (1954) and Vertigo (1958), described him as \"a painstaking craftsman.\"\nThe Stewarts' living room.\n\n\"I've never been a Hollywood glamour boy,\" claimed James Stewart, who starred in nearly 80 films. Signed by MGM in 1935, he was first cast in The Murder Man, with Spencer Tracy. \"I told him to forget the camera was there,\" said Tracy. \"That was all he needed.\"\nThe library in the Stewart home.\n\n\"The library was the most used room in the house,\" says Kelly Stewart. \"Family and friends always gathered there before dinner.\" On the low table are a Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor, and a book of poems Stewart published in 1989.\nThe master bedroom of the Stewart home.\n\nHenry Fonda, one of Stewart's first roommates after he moved to Hollywood, created the still life on the easel in the master bedroom. Fonda once said of the Stewart residence, \"It's as comfortable as Jimmy, with a splash of style thrown in by Gloria.\"\nAwards and photos on display in the library.\n\nStewart's Oscars\u2014for Best Actor in The Philadelphia Story in 1940 and for lifetime achievement in 1984\u2014are displayed in a niche in the library. On the wall is a 1939 New York Film Critics Award for Stewart's classic early role in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
