Miranda Richardson
- Born: 3 Mar, 1958
Like the intense and talented Judy Davis, British-born Miranda Richardson has developed a reputation as a strong-willed, even difficult actress who can deliver stellar performances, whether in comedy or drama, on stage, television or in films. The youngest daughter of a marketing executive and his homemaker wife, Richardson was raised in Southport, Lancashire and originally went to university to become a veterinarian. Instead, she trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and embarked on a career that has encompassed highs and lows from acclaimed stage work to award-winning screen performances.
