Anjelica Huston - Hollywood Royalty

I couldn't thumb through any of my mother's fashion magazine in the 70s and 80s without coming across Anjelica Huston. Long before she became known as the long-suffering girlfriend of Jack Nicholson, she was bonefied third generation Hollywood royalty.

I was fascinated by the fact that she was the daughter of a prima ballerina and Oscar worthy actor/director John Huston born in Santa Monica, California yet grew up in an estate in County Galway, Ireland. That she possess an amazing pedigree would be an understatement.

To grow up as such was what I would have chosen for my biography if we were allowed to choose.
