It is always difficult for child prodigies to carry their fame and ability into adulthood. Most fade from public view. Elizabeth Taylor, on the other hand, has become even more famous as an adult actress than she was as a child star.
Born in London in 1932, she played in her first Hollywood film ten years later. Her most famous film as a child was National Velvet, still popular today. By the early 1950s she had started to play roles as attractive young women and she was recognised as a great screen actress. In 1960, she won the title role in the multi-million dollar epic Cleopatra. Elizabeth Taylor has since gone on to star in several more successful films.
