Anthony Hepburn) found some old paperwork with the surname Hepburn written on it was born in Brussels,
Belgium on 4th May 1929.
During 1939 war broke out causing Audrey to fall on hard times suffering from depression.
Once the war ended Audrey pursued her love of
ballet at London. She continued this until she became interested in modeling. This was the career that brought her into the acting world and the career that helped her make all the films that we enjoy and love today. These co

It was this elegant women that quoted `I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing Funny Face when I couldn't sing and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance- and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it`.
