The secret woman : a life of Peggy Ashcroft

Open All Close All

http://schema.org/description

  • "In the final decade of her life, Peggy Ashcroft - the unrivalled actress of her generation - enjoyed an Indian summer in front of the cameras: as Barbie Batchelor in The jewel in the crown and as Mrs. Moore in David Lean's last film, A passage to India, for which she won the 1984 Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. In her lifetime she discouraged anyone who pried into her life, co-operating only on her public career with the critic Michael Billington. The private person remained undisclosed. Conceived following Peggy Ashcroft's death in 1991, O'Connor 's biography redresses the balance."
