In the Frame: My Life in Words and Pictures by Helen Mirren
Subtitle: My Life in Words and Pictures

I don’t read many “celebrity” memoirs, I love Helen Mirren. She’s an accomplished actress and I’ve enjoyed virtually every movie or TV show in which I’ve seen her perform. This is her autobiography / memoir, supported by many photos.

Looking at her as a young woman, leading a rather nomadic lifestyle with a theatre troupe in Africa and across the USA, as well as in the UK, gives me a completely different perspective on her as a woman. What a show more free spirit! What tenacity and courage and drive! I applaud her ability to remain focused on her own goals and desires, to know what is the right thing for her career and to pursue her craft. Brava!

I also quite enjoyed learning more about her family background, including her parents’ own immigrant story coming from Russia to the English countryside. show less

In the frame : my life in words and pictures by Helen Mirren
I have always thought Helen Mirren was fabulous and her memoir has done nothing to change my mind.
