Description
Patricia Neal was an American actress noted for her work on stage, films and television. Her professional triumphs included Tony and Academy Awards, but her life was marked by personal tragedies: a nervous breakdown when her affair with Gary Cooper ended, the death of her oldest child, brain damage to another and a debilitating stroke at age 39 that halted her career. She learned to walk and talk again with the help of her husband, writer Roald Dahl, and returned to acting despite an impaired memory that made it difficult to recall dialogue. Her performances are memorable and her story is inspiring.
