Fox News
Actor and producer Charlie Chaplin was born on this day in history, April 16, 1889, in London. He went on to perfect and refine the character Charlie the Tramp — and was knighted in 1975.
At the tender age of five, he was introduced to the stage as the son of London music hall entertainers. His "bowler hat, out-turned feet, mustache and walking cane" soon became his trademark. Chaplin is known for founding United Artists Corporation — with Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and director D.W. Griffith — in 1919. "I was so nervous working with him," Sophia Loren said about Charlie Chaplin. Maureen Mackey is managing editor of lifestyle for Fox News Digital.
As a young child, he was watching a show in which his own mother, known by the stage name Lily Harley, was starring — "when her voice cracked," as History.com relates.
