AUDREY HEPBURN
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION
CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB
Audrey Hepburn, born Audrey Kathleen Ruston, was a British actress and humanitarian recognized as a film and fashion icon. She rose to stardom with Roman Holiday (1953), winning an Academy Award, a Golden Globe, and a BAFTA for her performance. Hepburn's notable films include Sabrina, Funny Face, and Breakfast at Tiffany's. Later in life, she dedicated herself to UNICEF, working in impoverished communities. She was awarded the US Presidential Medal of Freedom for her humanitarian work. Hepburn was known for her unique style, often wearing simple, elegant silhouettes designed by Givenchy. She was considered one of the most beautiful women of all time, and remains a style inspiration.
CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:
Audrey Hepburn's father, Joseph Victor Anthony Ruston, changed his surname to Hepburn-Ruston because he mistakenly believed he was descended from James Hepburn, 4th Earl of Bothwell. He may have done this at the insistence of Audrey's mother in order to appear more aristocratic.
In the mid-1930s, Audrey's parents were involved with the British Union of Fascists, with her mother even meeting Adolf Hitler and writing favorably about him. However, her mother's views changed after her uncle was executed for resistance activities in 1942.
During the German occupation of the Netherlands, Audrey used the name Edda van Heemstra because her English-sounding name was considered dangerous. She also gave silent dance performances that raised money for the Dutch resistance.
