'''Wilkesboro''' is a town in and the [[county seat]] of [[Wilkes County, North Carolina]], United States.<ref name="GR6">{{cite web|url=http://www.naco.org/Counties/Pages/FindACounty.aspx|access-date=June 7, 2011|title=Find a County|publisher=National Association of Counties}}</ref> The population was 3,687 at the [[2020 United States census|2020 census]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://ncleg.gov/Files/GIS/Base_Data/2021/Reports/PL94_171_2020_PlacePop.pdf |access-date=October 16, 2023| title=2020 Census, North Carolina - Total Population by Municipality |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211201225228/https://ncleg.gov/Files/GIS/Base_Data/2021/Reports/PL94_171_2020_PlacePop.pdf |archive-date=December 1, 2021}}</ref> The town is located along the south bank of the [[Yadkin River]], directly opposite the town of [[North Wilkesboro, North Carolina|North Wilkesboro]].

==History ==
Wilkesboro was founded in 1800 and quickly designated as the county seat.

The town is built atop a low, broad ridge which runs for over a mile along the south bank of the Yadkin River.

For many decades a popular historic spot in Wilkesboro was the "Tory Oak", a large oak tree from which Colonel [[Benjamin Cleveland]], a well-known Wilkes County patriot during the [[American Revolutionary War]], hanged Loyalist militia leaders who supported the British king and opposed American independence from Britain. The oak was located behind the old Wilkes County courthouse.

During the [[American Civil War|Civil War]], many of Wilkesboro's residents remained loyal to the Union and opposed the [[Confederate States of America|Confederacy]]. In March 1865, General [[George Stoneman]], a Union cavalry leader, led a raid through the town.

Shortly after the war ended, [[Tom Dula]] (Dooley), a Confederate veteran, was tried and hanged for the murder of his fiancée, Laura Foster. Many people were convinced that one of Dula's jealous ex-girlfriends murdered Foster, and that Dula was innocent of the crime. Dula's story was turned into a top-selling [[ballad]] in 1958 by [[The Kingston Trio]], titled "[[Tom Dooley (song)|Tom Dooley]]". The story was subsequently turned into a 1959 movie starring [[Michael Landon]] as Dula. Each summer, the Wilkes Playmakers present a popular play based on the story.

'''Asheville High School''' is a public [[Secondary education in the United States|high school]] located in [[Asheville, North Carolina]], United States and is one of two secondary schools in the [[Asheville City Schools]] system. Designed by [[Douglas Ellington]], construction of the original building began in 1927 and was completed two years later. The modern addition was built in 1970 and a new cafeteria was finished in 2006. There is a second school located at the same address; the School of Inquiry and Life Sciences at Asheville (SILSA).

==History==
After the railroad system reached Asheville in 1881, the population of the city grew from 2,000 to 10,000. In response to this population influx, Asheville began a public school system in 1888, which originally consisted of a high school and three elementary schools. The elementary schools were the Orange Street School (currently occupied by NC DOT offices), Queen Carson Elementary School (currently occupied by a bus garage) and Montford Avenue School (replaced by the current William Randolph Elementary in the early 1950s). The high school was located at the corner of Broadway and Woodfin Street, in what had been the private home of Nicholas Woodfin. After use for educational purposes ceased about 1923 this structure was the downtown YMCA until a new structure was built further east on Woodfin about 1970, and the old building torn down. The former high school campus is currently occupied by a bank. The City of Asheville built two structures in the early 1920s, Hall Fletcher in West Asheville and David Millard, on Oak Street, adjacent to First Baptist Church, which, together, were known as Asheville High School. The David Millard Campus occupied a portion of the grounds of a former girls' school, with the balance of the former school grounds covered by the Church. Athletic teams and extracurricular clubs were drawn from both campuses. The former site of David Millard is currently covered by One Oak Plaza and the extension of Charlotte Street, and the West Asheville campus is currently occupied by a new Hall Fletcher Elementary School. The current University of North Carolina at Asheville began in 1927 as a two-year college, known as Asheville-Biltmore College, using classrooms on the ground floor of David Millard.

The population of Asheville continued to grow in the late 1920s. By 1926 the school board agreed that "a large, central high school plant" was needed. A committee formed to locate a suitable location reported that it found "only one site within the City of sufficient size, and of reasonable price … this tract of land lies between Victoria Road and the new McDowell Street." Out of seven architects submitting proposals for the new high school, [[Douglas Ellington|Douglas D. Ellington]] was selected by majority vote. In addition Nickolaus Louis Englehardt of [[Columbia University]] was hired as an advisor to the architect. Englehardt had worked a great deal in school planning and design on a national level. Ellington and Englehardt's collaboration made the new Asheville High a model facility in terms of architecture and educational offerings. The former Asheville High School was renamed David Millard Junior High School and, together with Hall Fletcher, served as the city's junior high schools for a time.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}}

With a cost of $1.3 million ($18.8 million in 2016 dollars) Asheville High School opened on February 5, 1929,<ref name=Ball/> with a dedication ceremony in the auditorium including as speakers the Mayor of Asheville, the superintendent of Asheville City Schools, [[Douglas Ellington]], Lee H. Edwards, the president of the PTA, the Headmaster of the [[Asheville School]] and the president of [[Duke University]]. When first opened, Asheville High had a wide variety of vocational programs including automotive mechanics, full print shops (all yearbooks, newspapers, and magazines were printed on-campus), mechanical drawing, and photography, including a darkroom.

When the stock market crashed in October 1929, it took Asheville by surprise. This forced the programming for the schools, and indeed the city's economic well-being, to hit rock bottom. For a time, Asheville High was closed, and students were removed to David Millard and Hall Fletcher. All extras were cut for a time, including much of the school's technical curriculum. In 1935 the school was renamed Lee H. Edwards High School in honor of Principal Edwards, who died unexpectedly that year.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}} The name "Asheville High School" returned with [[Racial integration|integration]] in 1969.<ref name=Ball/>

In 1949, another vocational facility (known today as the ROTC building) was created across from the original shop wing. This facility was built by students in the vocational program, as a real-world example of construction. In 1968, another larger vocational building was built. In the early 1970s, a media center addition was added to the main building. In 1973, a new gym and athletic facility was attached to the old vocational building.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}} In the early 1990s, a $3.5 million cultural arts building was built. Finally, in 2006, a new $3.1 million cafeteria was added to the campus.<ref name=Ball/>

On October 5, 2008, then Senator [[Barack Obama]] visited Asheville High School in his race for the White House. Over 25,000 people showed up at the Football Stadium to see Obama deliver his rally speech.{{citation needed|date=July 2016}}

In 2016, city school officials identified $25 million in needed repairs. The biggest problem was the roof, with thousands of clay tiles which would all have to be removed (and possibly replaced afterward) for the work. Jack Thomson, executive director of the Preservation Society of Asheville and Buncombe County, called the building "a master work of Ellington."<ref name=Ball>{{cite news|url=http://www.citizen-times.com/story/news/local/2016/06/19/preserving-ashevilles-historic-high-school/85560350/|title=Preserving Asheville's historic high school|last=Ball|first=Julie|work=[[Asheville Citizen-Times]]|date=2016-06-20|accessdate=2016-07-11}}</ref> Over the next few years a $27 million restoration project was undertaken that included repairs to the mortar work, switching out the copper [[Rain gutter|gutters]], and replacing the [[Ludowici Roof Tile|Ludowici roof tiles]].<ref>{{cite news |last1=Ruhling |first1=Nancy |title=PFA Architects' Restoration of Asheville High School |url=https://www.traditionalbuilding.com/projects/asheville-high-school-restoration |access-date=16 February 2024 |work=Traditional Building |publisher=Active Interest Media |date=31 July 2019}}</ref>

==Early life==
Gardenia was born Vincenzo Scognamiglio in [[Ercolano]], Città Metropolitana di Napoli, Campania, Italy, the elder son of<ref name="lat">{{cite news |last=Murphy |first=Mary |date=January 16, 1974 |title=Vince Gardenia and the Actor as Coach |work=[[Los Angeles Times]] |page=E1}}</ref> Elisa ({{nee}} Ausiello) and Gennaro Ettore Federico Scognamiglio (or Gennaro Gardenia Scognamiglio).<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nOfjraScrBEC&q=elisa+Ausiello+Scognamiglio|title=Contemporary Theatre, Film and Television|via=google.ca|isbn=9780810302419|access-date=June 29, 2015|last=Kondek|first=Joshua|date=September 1985|publisher=Cengage Gale }}</ref> In November, 1922, when he was almost three years old, the family immigrated to the United States and settled in [[Brooklyn]], New York.<ref name=lat/>

His father established an acting troupe that presented Italian-language melodramas. As a child, he performed in the troupe in Italian-American neighborhoods in and around New York City,<ref name=lat/> having later said, "the titles changed, but they were usually about a son or daughter who gets in trouble, runs away, then begs forgiveness". He debuted in the company at age five, portraying a [[shoeshine boy]]. He graduated to character roles while still a teenager. He remained a member of the company until 1960, five years after his first English-speaking role on Broadway.<ref name="nytimes">{{cite news |last=Grimes |first=William |author-link=William Grimes (journalist) |date=December 10, 1992 |title=Vincent Gardenia, Character Actor, Is Dead at 71 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1992/12/10/arts/vincent-gardenia-character-actor-is-dead-at-71.html |access-date=December 28, 2012 |work=[[The New York Times]]}}</ref>

Edgar Hoover]] in the miniseries ''[[Kennedy (1983 miniseries)|Kennedy]]'' (1983). He was featured in an episode of ''[[Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (TV series)|Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea]]'' titled "Escape From Venice". In addition, Gardenia gave memorable performances in popular TV shows such as [[The Twilight Zone (1985 TV series)|''The Twilight Zone'']], [[Mission: Impossible (1966 TV series)|''Mission: Impossible'']], ''[[Mannix]]'', [[Ironside (1967 TV series)|''Ironside'']], ''[[The Big Valley]]'' and [[The Fugitive (1963 TV series)|''The Fugitive'']].

In 1972, Gardenia appeared in season 3, episode 13 of [[Kojak]] "A House of Prayer, a Den of Thieves" where he portrayed Vince LaGuardia, a former NYC police detective and close friend and colleague of Lt. Kojak's, but now living and working in Las Vegas. The characters and storyline were a test for audience response with the goal of selling this as a pilot for a new series starring Gardenia. The pilot was not picked up by CBS.

==Death==
In December 1992, Gardenia was in [[Philadelphia]] to perform in the stage production of the Tom Dulack comedy ''Breaking Legs''. He was beginning a three-week run as restaurant owner Lou Graziano in the off-Broadway hit at the [[Forrest Theatre]]. It was a role he had performed since the show's New York City opening in May 1991.{{Citation needed|date=December 2022}}

Around 1 a.m. on December 9, 1992, hours after the final preview performance, Gardenia had returned to his hotel room after dining with stage director John Tillinger, producer Elliot Martin and cast members. According to Martin, Gardenia showed no signs of illness, adding, "It was just a jolly evening." According to authorities, when Gardenia failed to appear the next morning for a radio interview to promote the play's run, press representative [[Irene Gandy]] and cast member Vince Viverito became alarmed. When they arrived at Gardenia's hotel room, there was no answer. The hotel sent an engineer who opened the door and Gardenia was discovered dead of a [[heart attack]], dressed and clutching the telephone. He was 72.{{Citation needed |date=December 2022}}

That evening, in the theatrical tradition of "the show must go on" and just hours after Gardenia's death, the play's official opening took place. The company dedicated its opening performance to Gardenia's memory.<ref name="philly">{{cite news |last1=Bykofsky |first1=Stu |last2=Nelson |first2=Nels |last3=Daughen |first3=Joseph R. |title='Breaking Legs' Cast Pays Tribute To Star Dedicates Opener To Vince Gardenia Who Died In Hotel |url=http://articles.philly.com/1992-12-10/news/25995992_1_vincent-gardenia-lou-graziano-bad-luck |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140313074557/http://articles.philly.com/1992-12-10/news/25995992_1_vincent-gardenia-lou-graziano-bad-luck |url-status=dead |archive-date=March 13, 2014 |url-access=registration |access-date=December 28, 2012 |work=[[Philadelphia Daily News]]}}</ref> [[Harry Guardino]] assumed Gardenia's role as the restaurant owner.<ref name="guardino">{{cite news |date=January 20, 1993 |title=Guardino replaces Gardenia in play |url=https://www.baltimoresun.com/1993/01/20/guardino-replaces-gardenia-in-play/ |access-date=December 28, 2012 |work=[[The Baltimore Sun]]}}</ref>

|The [[1994–1996 United States broadcast television realignment|1994–96 United States broadcast TV realignment]] continues in two major markets: as a by-product of an affiliation deal between [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] and [[The E.W. Scripps Company]], and a related deal between [[CBS]] and [[Westinghouse Broadcasting]], Westinghouse-owned [[WBZ-TV]] (channel 4) in [[Boston, Massachusetts]] switches from [[NBC]] to CBS, while NBC aligns with former CBS affiliate [[WHDH (TV)|WHDH]] (which will remain affiliated with the network until New Year's Eve 2016). In Baltimore, CBS switches affiliations to Westinghouse-owned [[WJZ-TV]] (channel 13) after 46 years as an [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] affiliate, while ABC joins Scripps-owned [[WMAR]] (channel 2) and NBC reunites with [[WBAL-TV]] (channel 11) after 13 years as a CBS affiliate. Later that year, Westinghouse acquires CBS, making both WBZ-TV and WJZ-TV [[CBS Television Stations|CBS owned-and-operated stations]].

|''[[G-Force: Guardians of Space]]'', the second American adaptation of the [[Japan]]ese [[anime]] series ''[[Science Ninja Team Gatchaman]]'' (the first being ''[[Battle of the Planets]]'') becomes the first-ever anime to air on [[Cartoon Network]].

This predates the March 1997 debut of [[Toonami]], which will go on to popularize anime on the network and in the West.

|In an interview with Kathleen Gingrich, mother of [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]] politician [[Newt Gingrich]], on [[CBS News|CBS]]' ''[[Eye to Eye with Connie Chung|Eye to Eye]]'', Mrs. Gingrich said she could not say what her son thought about [[First Lady of the United States|First Lady]] [[Hillary Clinton]] on the air. [[Connie Chung]] asked Mrs. Gingrich to "just whisper it to me, just between you and me," and Mrs. Gingrich's microphone volume was turned up as she replied "He thinks she's a bitch."<ref>{{youtube|vecw539MjWM|Newt Gingrich: Hillary "She's A Bitch"}}</ref> Many people interpreted Chung's suggestion that if Mrs. Gingrich would whisper this statement it would be promised that the statement would be off the record. Bill Carter for ''The New York Times'' reported, "Ms. Chung had become the object of some of the most ferocious criticism, justified or not, ever directed at any network anchor as a result of her now infamous interview with Speaker Newt Gingrich's mother, Kathleen."<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1995/05/22/us/the-empty-chair.html|title=The Empty Chair|newspaper=The New York Times|first=Bill|last=Carter|date=May 22, 1995}}</ref> The interview was also parodied on ''[[Saturday Night Live]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://snltranscripts.jt.org/94/94j.phtml|title=SNL Transcripts: Jeff Daniels: 01/14/95|work=SNL Transcripts|access-date=January 28, 2017}}</ref>

|[[The WB]], a joint venture between [[Warner Bros. Television]] and [[Tribune Broadcasting]] in conjunction with original network CEO [[Jamie Kellner]], launches. Among the programs offered are four situation comedies (two family-oriented, one family-focused but adult-targeted and one adult-oriented soap opera-inspired satire): ''[[The Wayans Bros.]]'' (starring former ''[[In Living Color]]'' DJ/cast member [[Shawn Wayans]] and his younger brother, [[Marlon Wayans]]), ''[[The Parent 'Hood]]'' (starring [[Robert Townsend (actor)|Robert Townsend]]), ''[[Unhappily Ever After]]'' and ''[[Muscle (TV series)|Muscle]]''. While the former three series wound up lasting five seasons, ''Muscle'' fails to survive its first season. In addition to being available on around 70 affiliates, The WB is also initially distributed directly to cable and satellite providers via the [[WGN America|superstation feed]] of [[Chicago]] charter affiliate [[WGN-TV]] (owned by Tribune) to serve markets where the lack of available independent stations or stations that passed over the network in favor of fellow fledgling network UPN prevented The WB from maintaining an exclusive affiliation at launch. (This ended in August 1999, as a result of The WB gaining full-time affiliates in some underserved mid-sized markets and [[The WB 100+ Station Group|a small-market cable feed]] being launched to serve smaller markets.)

|The United Paramount Network ([[UPN]]) launches, with a two-hour premiere of ''[[Star Trek: Voyager]]''. This results in an affiliation change in San Antonio between [[Fox Broadcasting Company|Fox]] affiliate KRRT (now [[KMYS]]) and independent station [[KABB]], as KRRT leaves Fox for the new network (due to its then-ownership by [[Paramount Stations Group|Paramount Pictures]], UPN's part-owner) and KABB assumes the Fox affiliation.

|The 1994–96 United States broadcast TV realignment continues in the [[Flint/Tri-Cities]], Michigan market, as [[NBC]] affiliate [[WNEM-TV]] in [[Bay City, Michigan|Bay City]] and [[CBS]] affiliate [[WEYI-TV]] in [[Saginaw, Michigan|Saginaw]] swap affiliations. The move is deemed necessary by CBS to restore coverage in areas underserved by its then-new affiliate [[WWJ-TV|WGPR]] in adjacent [[Detroit]], since WNEM-TV's signal is stronger than that of WEYI-TV.

|After being purchased by [[New World Communications]] from Argyle Television, three additional stations switch to [[Fox Broadcasting Company|Fox]] as part of the 1994–96 United States broadcast TV realignment: [[KDFW]] (channel 4) in Dallas-Ft. Worth, [[KTBC (TV)|KTBC]] (channel 7) in Austin, Texas and [[KTVI]] (channel 2) in St. Louis. KDFW and KTBC both defect from [[CBS]], while KTVI leaves [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]. Independent station [[KTVT]] (channel 11) in Dallas takes the CBS affiliation in that area through an affiliation deal between the network and [[Ryman Hospitality Properties|Gaylord Broadcasting]] (owners of KTVT); in Austin, former Fox affiliate KBVO (channel 42) swaps affiliations with KTBC and changes its calls to [[KEYE-TV|KEYE]]; and in St. Louis, [[KDNL-TV|KDNL]] (channel 30) swaps its Fox affiliation with KTVI and joins ABC. Former Fox-owned station [[KDAF-TV]] (channel 33) joins [[The WB]], taking that affiliation from [[KXTX-TV]] (channel 39) due to a temporary arrangement in which KXTX would carry WB programming, until such time Fox was cleared to move to channel 4. KXTX-TV then becomes an independent station. [[Fox Kids]], Fox's children programming block, doesn't follow the rest of the network's programming to KTBC and KTVI because of their commitments to news, and instead air on independent stations [[K13VC]] and [[KNLC]]. As a result of a dispute between Fox and KNLC, however, Fox Kids is moved to KTVI the following year.

|[[Major League Baseball on ABC|ABC]] and [[Major League Baseball on NBC|NBC]] begin their unprecedented shared coverage of the [[1995 World Series|World Series]] through their soon to be concluding revenue sharing joint-venture with [[Major League Baseball]] called [[The Baseball Network]]. ABC, who last broadcast a World Series in [[1989 World Series|1989]] airs Games 1, 4, and 5 (with [[Al Michaels]], [[Jim Palmer]] and [[Tim McCarver]] on the call) while NBC, who last broadcast a World Series in [[1988 World Series|1988]], airs Games 2, 3 and the decisive Game 6 (with [[Bob Costas]], [[Joe Morgan]] and [[Bob Uecker]] on the call). (A seventh game, if necessary, would have been televised by ABC.) While NBC will continue to hold some MLB rights for the next few years, Game 5 on October 26 would prove to be the last Major League Baseball game to be broadcast by ABC until Game 1 of the [[2020 American League Wild Card Series]] between the [[2020 Houston Astros season|Houston Astros]] and [[2020 Minnesota Twins season|Minnesota Twins]].

The following is an overview of events in '''2007 in film''', including the highest-grossing films, award ceremonies and festivals, a list of films released and notable deaths. The highest-grossing film of the year was ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End]]'', which was just marginally ahead of ''[[Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (film)|Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix]]''. 2007 is often considered one of the greatest years for film in the 21st century.<ref name=DenofGeek2007>{{Cite web|url=https://www.denofgeek.com/us/263894/why-2007-was-a-great-year-for-film|title=Why 2007 was a great year for film|publisher=Den of Geek!|date=18 April 2017|access-date=13 July 2019|author=Mark Allison}}</ref><ref name=TasteofCinema2007>{{Cite web|url=http://www.tasteofcinema.com/2014/20-best-movies-of-2007/|title=20 Movies That Prove 2007 Is The Best Film Year of The 21st Century (So Far)|date=16 December 2014|access-date=13 July 2019|author=Craig Johnson}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2017/08/31/10-movies-prove-2007-best-film-year-21st-century/614638001/|title=10 movies that prove 2007 is the best film year of the 21st century|date=31 August 2017|author=Patrick Ryan|publisher=USA Today|access-date=13 July 2019}}</ref> It was also the last year to never have a film gross $1 billion until 2020.

==Evaluation of the year==
In his article from April 18, 2017, which highlighted the best movies of 2007, critic Mark Allison of ''[[Den of Geek]]'' said, "2007 must surely be remembered as one of the finest years in English-language film-making, quite possibly the best of this century so far. Like 1939, 1976, or 1994, it was one of those years in which a succession of veritable classics came into being. So many, in fact, that some of the best examples were cruelly overlooked by the hype machine of the day." He also emphasized, "If 2007 proves anything, it's that classic films aren't just a relic of ages past; they're being made all around us. I can't wait to see what we're watching in another ten years' time."<ref name=DenofGeek2007/>

Critic Craig Johnson from the film review and movie list website ''Taste of Cinema'' said in an article from December 16, 2014, "For one glorious year, it (2007) was like the 1970s all over again. Smart characters were using their brains as weapons. Movie stars were challenging themselves with tough roles. Punches were not pulled. Happy endings were not guaranteed. There was a parade of intelligent movies, seemingly made for adults to watch while the kids were watching Transformers".<ref name=TasteofCinema2007/>

==Early life==
Gassman was born in [[Genoa]] to a German father, Heinrich Gassmann (an engineer from [[Karlsruhe]]), and an [[Italian Jews|Italian Jewish]] mother, Luisa Ambron, born in [[Pisa]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ovguide.com/vittorio-gassman-9202a8c04000641f80000000000582db# |title=Vittorio Gassman Video | Celebrity Interview and Paparazzi |publisher=Ovguide.com |access-date=2014-05-10}}</ref> While still very young, he moved to Rome, where he studied at the [[Accademia Nazionale di Arte Drammatica Silvio D'Amico|Silvio D'Amico National Academy of Dramatic Arts]].<ref>{{cite web |author=Markon.net srl |url=http://www.vittoriogassman.it/biografia.htm |title=Vittorio Gassman - Sito ufficiale |publisher=Vittoriogassman.it |access-date=2014-05-10 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140503165619/http://www.vittoriogassman.it/biografia.htm |archive-date=3 May 2014}}</ref>

==Career==
Gassman's debut was in [[Milan]], in 1942, with Alda Borelli in Niccodemi's ''La Nemica'' (theatre). He then moved to Rome and acted at the ''Teatro Eliseo'' joining [[Tino Carraro]] and [[Ernesto Calindri]] in a team that remained famous for some time; with them he acted in a range of plays from bourgeois comedy to sophisticated intellectual theatre. In 1946, he made his film debut in ''Preludio d'amore'', while only one year later he appeared in five films. In 1948 he played in ''[[Bitter Rice|Riso amaro]]''.

It was with [[Luchino Visconti]]'s company that Gassman achieved his mature successes, together with [[Paolo Stoppa]], [[Rina Morelli]] and [[Paola Borboni]]. He played [[Stanley Kowalski]] in [[Tennessee Williams]]' ''Un tram che si chiama desiderio'' (''[[A Streetcar Named Desire]]''), as well as in ''Come vi piace'' (''[[As You Like It]]'') by [[Shakespeare]] and ''Oreste'' (by [[Vittorio Alfieri]]). He joined the ''Teatro Nazionale'' with Tommaso Salvini, [[Massimo Girotti]], [[Arnoldo Foà]] to create a successful ''[[Peer Gynt]]'' (by [[Henrik Ibsen]]). With [[Luigi Squarzina]] in 1952 he co-founded and co-directed the ''Teatro d'Arte Italiano'', producing the first complete version of ''[[Hamlet]]'' in Italy, followed by rare works such as [[Seneca the Younger|Seneca]]'s ''Thyestes'' and [[Aeschylus]]'s ''The Persians''.

[[File:Photo Milan, Teatro Manzoni. Vittorio Gassman during the performance of the tragedy Oedipus Rex by Sophocles 1955 - Touring Club Italiano 04 2242.jpg|thumb|Vittorio Gassman during the performance of the tragedy ''Oedipus Rex'' in 1955]]

In 1956 Gassman played the title role in a production of ''[[Othello]]''. He was so well received by his acting in the television series entitled ''{{ill|Il Mattatore (Spotlight Chaser)|it|Il Mattatore (programma televisivo)}}'' that "Il Mattatore" became the nickname that accompanied him for the rest of his life. Gassman's debut in the [[commedia all'italiana]] genre was rather accidental,{{How|date=October 2021}} in [[Mario Monicelli]]'s ''[[I soliti ignoti]]'' (''Big Deal on Madonna Street'', 1958). Famous movies featuring Gassman include: ''[[The Easy Life|Il sorpasso]]'' (1962), ''[[La Grande Guerra]]'' (1962), ''[[I mostri]]'' (1963), ''[[L'Armata Brancaleone]]'' (1966), ''[[Profumo di donna]]'' (1974) and ''[[C'eravamo tanto amati]]'' (1974).

He directed ''[[Adelchi]]'', a lesser-known work by [[Alessandro Manzoni]]. Gassman brought this production to half a million spectators, crossing Italy with his ''Teatro Popolare Itinerante'' (a newer edition of the famous ''[[Carro di Tespi]]''). His productions have included many of the famous authors and playwrights of the 20th century, with repeated returns to the classics of [[Shakespeare]], [[Dostoyevsky]] and the [[Greece|Greek]] tragicians. He also founded a theatre school in [[Florence, Italy|Florence]] ([[Bottega Teatrale di Firenze]]), which educated many of the more talented actors of the current generation of Italian thespians.<ref>{{cite web |author=Markon.net srl |url=http://www.vittoriogassman.it/biografia.htm |title=Vittorio Gassman - Sito ufficiale |publisher=Vittoriogassman.it |access-date=2014-05-10 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140503165619/http://www.vittoriogassman.it/biografia.htm |archive-date=3 May 2014}}</ref>

In cinema, he worked frequently both in Italy and abroad. He met and fell in love with American actress [[Shelley Winters]] while she was touring Europe with fiancé [[Farley Granger]]. When Winters was forced to return to [[Hollywood, Los Angeles|Hollywood]] to fulfill contractual obligations, he followed her there and married her. With his natural charisma and his fluency in English he scored a number of roles in Hollywood, including ''[[Rhapsody (1954 film)|Rhapsody]]'' with [[Elizabeth Taylor]] and ''[[The Glass Wall]]'' before returning to Italy and the theatre.

In the 1990s he took part in the popular Italian [[Rai 3]] TV show ''[[Tunnel (TV show)|Tunnel]]'' in which he very formally and "seriously"' recited documents such as utility bills, yellow pages and similar trivial texts, such as washing instructions for a wool sweater or cookies ingredients.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.casaitaliananyu.org/content/theatre |title=Theatre | Casa Italiana Zerilli / Marimò |publisher=Casaitaliananyu.org |access-date=2014-05-10 |archive-date=7 September 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110907082522/http://www.casaitaliananyu.org/content/theatre |url-status=dead }}</ref> He rendered them with the same professional skill that made him famous while reciting [[Dante Alighieri|Dante]]'s ''Divine Comedy''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://encinematheque.net/acteurs/H35/index.asp |title=Vittorio GASSMAN |publisher=Encinematheque.net |access-date=2014-05-10 |archive-date=13 May 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140513011120/http://encinematheque.net/acteurs/H35/index.asp |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |author=Markon.net srl |url=http://www.vittoriogassman.it/biografia.htm |title=Vittorio Gassman - Sito ufficiale |publisher=Vittoriogassman.it |access-date=2014-05-10 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140503165619/http://www.vittoriogassman.it/biografia.htm |archive-date=3 May 2014}}</ref>

In 1994, Gassman voiced [[Mufasa]] in the Italian dubbed version of ''[[The Lion King]]''.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Mallozzi |first=Giuseppe |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=0LqFEAAAQBAJ&dq=%22Vittorio+Gassman%22+%22Mufasa%22+%221994%22&pg=PT105 |title=Vittorio Gassman: Quaderni di Visioni Corte Film Festival |date=2022-08-29 |publisher=Ali Ribelli Edizioni |isbn=978-88-3346-900-3 |language=it}}</ref> Gassman's voice was redubbed in several of his films by historical Italian actors and dubbers which include [[Emilio Cigoli]], [[Sandro Ruffini]], [[Gualtiero De Angelis]], [[Stefano Sibaldi]], [[Enrico Maria Salerno]] and [[Pino Locchi]].

==Personal life==
Gassman married three times, all to actresses: [[Nora Ricci]] (with whom he had [[Paola Gassman|Paola]], an actress and wife of [[Ugo Pagliai]]);<ref>{{Cite web |last=Costantini |first=Emilia |date=2020-06-24 |title=Paola Gassman: "Papà Vittorio morto il giorno del mio "non compleanno!" |url=https://www.corriere.it/spettacoli/20_giugno_24/paola-gassman-vi-racconto-segreti-papa-vittorio-bdd4e7d8-b62d-11ea-9dea-5ac3c9ec7c08.shtml |access-date=2023-12-29 |website=Corriere della Sera |language=it}}</ref> [[Shelley Winters]] (mother of his daughter Vittoria);<ref>{{Cite web |title=Vittorio Gassman raccontato da sua figlia - Cinema |url=https://www.raicultura.it/cinema/articoli/2020/05/Vittorio-Gassman-raccontato-da-sua-figlia-8ed1ac77-a7c3-4844-aa68-94de6e575986.html |access-date=2023-12-29 |website=Rai Cultura |language=it}}</ref> and {{Interlanguage link|Diletta D'Andrea|lt=Diletta D'Andrea|it|Diletta D'Andrea}} (mother of his son Jacopo).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-02-25 |title=Emanuele Salce a Oggi è un altro giorno: "Il mio rapporto con il mio patrigno Vittorio Gassman" |url=https://www.ilmattino.it/spettacoli/televisione/emanuele_salce_oggi_un_altro_giorno_rapporto_patrigno_vittorio_gassman-6527738.html |access-date=2023-12-29 |website=www.ilmattino.it |language=it}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2020-06-29 |title=Vent'anni dalla morte di Vittorio Gassman: i suoi amori.

While rehearsing ''Hamlet'', he began an affair with [[Anna Maria Ferrero]], his 16-year-old [[Ophelia]], which ended his marriage to Winters.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2018-05-21 |title=È morta Anna Maria Ferrero, l'attrice che lasciò il cinema per amore |url=https://www.repubblica.it/spettacoli/cinema/2018/05/21/news/anna_maria_ferrero-196991867/ |access-date=2023-12-29 |website=la Repubblica |language=it}}</ref> He and Winters were forced to work together on ''[[Mambo (1954 film)|Mambo]]'' just as their marriage was unraveling, providing fodder for tabloids all over the world.

From 1964 to 1968 he was the partner of [[France|French]] actress [[Juliette Mayniel]] (mother of his son [[Alessandro Gassman|Alessandro]], also an actor).<ref>{{cite web|author=Vittorio Gassman |url=http://trovacinema.repubblica.it/attori-registi/vittorio-gassman/181244 |title=La schema di Vittorio Gassman.
