Deborah Kerr biography

Profile

After performing in British films such as Major Barbara (1941) and Black Narcissus (1947), Deborah Kerr moved to Hollywood, where she was often cast in prim roles, though her part in From Here to Eternity (1953) was a departure from her ladylike image. Known for the poise and serenity she exhibited in portraying complex characters, she appeared in later films including The King and I (1956).
