2. The Birth of The Tramp and Professional Confidence
Scott Eyman
Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided
Chaplin arrived in America with the Carno group between 1910 and 1913. Stan Laurel noted his prodigious talent and absolute professional self-confidence. In 1914, Chaplin joined Max Sennett's Keystone studio, where he quickly created the iconic Tramp costume from wardrobe pieces, deliberately seeking visual contradiction. He soon demanded and received control to direct his own highly successful pictures. Despite his fame and early unsuccessful marriages, he remained extraordinarily shy in private life.
