Audrey Hepburn is one of the most famous actresses of the 20th century though she had made a relatively modest number of movies — about 30. Both her fans and producers however, agree that she was not only an actress but an icon of elegance and style.

Audrey Hepburn was born in Brussels, Belgium, in 1929. Her mother came from the Netherlands and the father was of the British origin. The family moved among the three countries, so Audrey was brought up in the multicultural surroundings and benefited from it. In addition to her native Dutch and English she spoke French, Spanish, and Italian. Audrey attended school in the Netherlands and in Britain. She was also classically trained in ballet.

During the World War II, when Audrey and her mother were in the Netherlands, the country was occupied by the Nazi. The mother and daughter struggled to survive, they actually starved. In those depressive and dangerous times Audrey secretly participated in the ballet performances to raise money for Dutch resistance movement. She also acted as a courier for the resistance, delivering messaged and packages.

After the war Audrey and her mother moved to London where her skills of a ballet dancer got her a job in the musical theatre. From time to time she also played very short, a few line parts in the films. Her first serious movie that counted was Secret People, a spy thriller. Later, in 1953, she starred in Roman Holiday, the film that made her really famous and for which she won the Best Actress Oscar, the first of many awards she would get later.

with her family, the family usually won. In the end of the sixties, she practically abandoned the career though she was on top of her popularity. Since then she appeared in new films only from time to time. Audrey died in 1993. Since 1988 up to her death she was Goodwill Ambassador to the United Nations UNICEF fund helping children. This activity was very meaningful to Audrey and she travelled widely to the most troublesome places in Africa and Latin America. Her humanitarian mission was to save children from starvation, to arrange help in health care and education. Audrey's name is in the list of the 50 most beautiful people in the world.

In Roman Holiday Audrey plays Anna, a princess from some European country who is on a visit in Rome. The young romantic girl is so fed up with the formal routine and protocols that she secretly escapes her country's embassy to enjoy Rome incognito. She has no money and she has a very vague idea of what real life is like. The princess is beautiful, naive, and impractical but in some way she makes people she meets behave less selfishly and more decently than they used to do.
