Dame Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor, DBE (born February 27, 1932) is a two-time Academy Award-winning British-American actress.
Her eyes are sometimes said to be violet color, and at least one source refers to this suggested anomaly as her "trademark" violet eyes. It is further suggested, though photos do not support the claim, that her eyes are framed by a "double row" of eyelashes. Known for her acting skills and beauty, as well as her Hollywood lifestyle including many marriages, she is considered one of the great actresses of Hollywood’s golden years, as well as a larger-than-life celebrity. The American Film Institute named Taylor seventh among the Greatest Female Stars of All Time. Taylor was born in Hampstead, a very wealthy suburb of London, England, the second child of Francis Lenn Taylor (1897 – 1968) and Sara Viola Warmbrodt (1896 – 1994), who were Americans residing in England. Taylor`s older brother, Howard Taylor, was born in 1929. Her two first names are in honor of her paternal grandmother, Elizabeth Taylor, who was born Elizabeth Mary Rosemond. Taylor was born both a British subject and an American citizen, the former by being born on British soil under the principle of Jus soli, and the latter through her parents under the principle of Jus sanguinis. She`s most famous for her roles in may files back in the 50`s and her many marriages. |
