Hepburn survived the German occupation of the Netherlands during World War II before pursuing a career in ballet and acting, eventually rising to Hollywood stardom in the 1950s with her breakout role in Roman Holiday, for which she won an Academy Award.

She became one of the defining film stars of her era, celebrated for her distinctive style and grace in films including Breakfast at Tiffany's, and remains closely associated with fashion designer Hubert de Givenchy's designs.

In her later years, Hepburn dedicated much of her time to humanitarian work as a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF, traveling to some of the world's poorest regions to draw attention to children's welfare until her death in 1993.
