Description

Denied her dream of reprising her Broadway success in the film version of Camelot, Julie Andrews (1935- ) received instead an Oscar for Mary Poppins. A year later she starred in The Sound of Music and her career would never be the same. A remarkable singer with a four-octave voice, Andrews built a career based on solid musical, theatrical and film performances, until a surgeon’s error forced her to reinvent her life and focus on acting, narration, and writing.
