Better known as Audrey Hepburn and born on this day in 1929, she had a career that spanned nearly forty years. She collected many awards for her memorable acting abilities, including a Henrietta Award in 1955 for World's Favourite Actress.
As an appointed Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF (United Nations Children's Fund) she dedicated the rest of her life helping children growing up in poverty. One month before her death, in December 1992, she won a Presidential Medal of Freedom for her work with UNICEF.
Hepburn died of abdominal cancer in January 1993 in Switzerland, but until the end was voted 'The Most Beautiful Woman of All Time' and she will, in my mind live on as that.
