  • Audrey Hepburn participated in the Dutch resistance during WWII, delivering messages and staging performances to support anti-Nazi efforts.
  • Despite her fame as a film star in the 1950s and '60s, she endured hardship, hunger, and loss, particularly her uncle's execution by the Nazis.
  • Hepburn's mother held fascist sympathies, which strained their relationship and influenced Hepburn's view on good and evil.
  • During the war, Hepburn often disguised her actions, delivering secret messages and raising funds while keeping her identity hidden.
  • Post-war, she transitioned into acting and became a global icon, later dedicating her life to charitable work, particularly with UNICEF.
