Audrey Hepburn embodied the grace and glamour of Hollywood’s Golden Age. From the radiant princess of Roman Holiday to the wistful dreamer of Breakfast at Tiffany’s and the spirited flower girl of My Fair Lady, she redefined screen femininity with luminous charm.
A lifelong muse to designers such as Hubert de Givenchy and Ralph Lauren, Hepburn became the first post-war film star to achieve global fashion icon status. Yet fame never sat easily with her, and she left Hollywood in the late 1960s to devote herself to her family.
In later years, her compassion shone through her work with UNICEF, where she championed children suffering from hunger and poverty with quiet determination.
In this affectionate portrait, Sheridan Morley traces Hepburn’s journey from her wartime childhood to her death in 1993, celebrating a life of beauty, integrity, and timeless grace.
