In this dramatic portrayal, Leslie Goddard brings actress and humanitarian Audrey Hepburn to life!
It is 1989, and Audrey Hepburn has just returned to her home in Switzerland for an interview about her work as a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF. As she entertains her guests over cocktails, she shares stories about her childhood during World War II, her remarkable success in Hollywood in films such as Roman Holiday, Sabrina, and Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and her lifelong efforts to find real love and overcome her own deep-seated fears.
Leslie Goddard, Ph.D., is an award-winning scholar and actress who has been portraying great women in history for more than twenty years. She holds an interdisciplinary Ph.D. from Northwestern University as well as a master’s degree and an undergraduate degree in theater. A former museum director, she currently works full-time as an actress, public speaker, and author.
