Jessica Tandy


 

Jessica Tandy, christened Jessie Alice Tandy (June 7, 190911 September 1994) was a noted British-American theatre, film and TV actress. Born in London, England, she was married to the Canadian-American actor, the late Hume Cronyn from 1942 until her death in 1994. She is the mother of actress Tandy Cronyn, as well as a son, Christopher Cronyn, and was chosen by People magazine as one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the world in 1990. Later the same year, in a cruel irony, she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, which she battled fiercely for 5 years, during which time she continued to work. She had also been treated for angina and glaucoma previously.
