Deborah Kerr, a Scotland-born actress, is known for her natural beauty and memorable depictions of English gentility on screen. She first gained fame in British films before the age of 21, and later became a prominent figure in Hollywood starting in 1946. Kerr was able to portray characters with a sense of cool reserve and stoic nobility, while also conveying hints of passion and insecurity lurking beneath the surface. Often playing selfless and sympathetic women, one of her standout roles was as Anna Leonowens in the beloved film The King and I (1956).
In a departure from her usual typecast, Kerr took on the role of a sexually frustrated Army wife in From Here to Eternity (1953), resulting in one of the most iconic moments in cinema history - the famous beach scene with Burt Lancaster. Despite being nominated for six Academy Awards, Kerr never took home an Oscar until she was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 1994.
