Audrey Hepburn was born on May 4th, 1929, in Brussels, Belgium.
Her career as an actress began in London in 1948, but she moved
to New York when she was only 22 to become a Broadway actress.
Soon after that, Hepburn began acting in Hollywood movies, and
she quickly became very, very famous. She won her first Oscar
in 1954 when she was only 24 years old, and she won many
more awards during her career. Hepburns last movie was Always,
directed by Steven Spielberg, in 1989. She decided to end her
acting career because she wanted to help children around the
world. She worked with UNICEF and traveled to many countries
in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. She died at her home in
Switzerland on January 20th, 1993. Audrey Hepburn was a great
actress and a great humanitarian.
