Vanessa

From the time of her appearance as Rosalind in "As You Like It" at Stratford in 1961, and throughout her career, Vanessa Redgrave has been reticent about her personal life. Here she reveals what it is like to be born into the fourth generation of a famous theatrical family and how inextricably bound up her political beliefs are with her acting career, often resulting in controversy and misunderstanding. She talks about being a member of the Marxist Party, her work for the Palestininian people and much more.
