青年トレーシーは学業に飽きて、17歳で米海軍に加わったので、学者への嫌悪にもかかわらず、最終的にはウィスコンシン州のリポンカレッジの予備校生になりました。そこにいる間、彼はオーディションのオーディションに参加し、最初のプレーでの役割を勝ち取りました。 1922年に彼はニューヨーク市に行き、そこで彼と彼の友人のパット・オブライエンはアメリカ演劇芸術アカデミーに在籍した。同じ年、両方の男性がブロードウェイで共同デビューし、カレルチャペックのRURでロボットとしての役割を果たしました。その後8年間、トレーシーはブロードウェイの短編劇の特集パートと地域の株式会社の主役の間を行き来し、ついにスターの座を獲得しました。彼は1930年のブロードウェイがザラストマイルをヒットしたときに死刑囚のキラーミアーズとしてキャストされました。その後、彼は2つのVitaphone短編小説に登場し、しかし、彼は自分自身に不満を抱き、スクリーンのスターの可能性について悲観的でした。
Nevertheless, director John Ford hired Tracy to star in the 1930 feature film Up the River, which resulted in a five-year stay at Fox Studios in Hollywood. Although few of his Fox films were memorable—excepting perhaps Me and My Gal (1932), 20,000 Years in Sing Sing (1932), and The Power and the Glory (1933)—his tenure at the studio enabled him to develop his uncanny ability to act without ever appearing to be acting. His friend Humphrey Bogart once attempted to describe the elusive Tracy technique: “[You] don’t see the mechanism working, the wheels turning. He covers up. He never overacts or is hammy. He makes you believe what he is playing.” For his part, Tracy always denied that he had come up with any sort of magic formula. Whenever he was asked the secret of great acting, he usually snapped, “Learn your lines!”
In 1935 he was signed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, where he would do some of his best work, beginning with his harrowing performance as a lynch-mob survivor in Fritz Lang’s Fury (1936). He received his first of nine Oscar nominations for San Francisco (1936) and became the first actor to win two consecutive Academy Awards, for his performance as the Portuguese fisherman Manuel in Captains Courageous (1937) and for his role as the priest who founded the eponymous facility in Boys Town (1938). In the course of his two decades at MGM he settled gracefully into character leads, conveying everything from paternal bemusement in Father of the Bride (1950) to grim determination in Bad Day at Black Rock (1955). In later years his health was eroded by respiratory ailments and a lifelong struggle with alcoholism, but Tracy worked into the early 1960s, delivering exceptionally powerful performances in producer-director Stanley Kramer’s Inherit the Wind (1960) and Judgment at Nuremberg (1961).
Married since 1923 to former actress Louise Treadwell, Tracy lived apart from his wife throughout most of their marriage, though as a strict Roman Catholic he refused to consider divorce. From 1942 onward, he maintained a warm, intimate relationship with actress Katharine Hepburn. Tracy and Hepburn were also memorably teamed in nine films, including Woman of the Year (1942), Adam’s Rib (1949), Pat and Mike (1952), Desk Set (1957), and Kramer’s Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner (1967), which was completed three weeks before Tracy’s death.
