## Bio

Born in Japan in 1916, de Havilland became a star opposite Errol Flynn in Captain Blood and The Adventures of Robin Hood before earning her first nomination for Gone with the Wind in 1939. Through the 1940s she left ingénue parts behind, winning Best Actress for To Each His Own and The Heiress and collecting three more nominations for roles in Hold Back the Dawn and The Snake Pit. She moved to Paris in the 1950s, returned intermittently to Broadway and television - earning a Golden Globe for Anastasia: The Mystery of Anna - and at 101 was named Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire. She died in 2020 at 104, the oldest living Oscar winner, the last major star of Hollywood's Golden Age, and one half of the only sibling pair to win Academy Awards for acting - the other being her sister Joan Fontaine, with whom she shared a famously bitter rivalry.
