Audrey Hepburn.
Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993), Belgian-born actor and humanitarian, who became one of Hollywood's best-known stars with her leading roles in films such as Roman
Holiday (1953), Funny Face (1957), and Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961). Born Edda van Heemstra Hepburn-Ruston in Brussels, her mother was a Dutch baroness and her
father a British banker. Hepburn went to private schools in England and the Netherlands, but remained with her mother in the Netherlands throughout World War II
(1939-1945). During the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands of 1944 to 1945, Hepburn suffered many health problems associated with malnutrition. She later worked as
a model and began acting in films in 1951.
Hepburn starred in many movies, including War and Peace (1956), The Unforgiven (1960), Charade (1963), and My Fair Lady (1964). She won an Academy Award as
best actress for her role in Roman Holiday and was nominated for best actress for her roles in Sabrina (1954), The Nun's Story (1959), Breakfast at Tiffany's, and Wait
Until Dark (1967). In 1988 Hepburn became a special ambassador to the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and spent the last years of her life working for needy
children, especially in Africa and Latin America.
