"Coop would come in, languid all over the place, a stringbean of a man with an easy smile and a great deal of charm. You knew that whatever mood you caught him in, deep down inside he was just thinking of shooting a lion or something. But he'd light a cigarette in that slow way of his while looking straight into the camera, and his fans would see his picture and think they'd bagged a lion."--William Walling, Hollywood photographer
