Natasha Richardson and Vanessa Redgrave

Vanessa Redgrave began her career on stage in the late 50’s and the English actress has been popular for her roles in numerous films, both in Hollywood and the London film circle.

She has been a part of blockbuster films such as Mary, Queen of Scots, Howards End, Murder on the Orient Express, and The Butler. Vanessa has been honored with an induction into the prestigious American Theatre Hall of Fame. Redgrave’s daughters with ex Tony Richardson followed their mother’s footsteps, and Natasha Richardson whose uncanny similarity to her mother is immediately noticeable is famous for her roles in movies The Parent Trap, and Maid in Manhattan.

Unfortunately, Natasha, who was married to actor Liam Neeson, passed away in 2009 in a skiing accident. Although her health insurance cover might have helped her family, we wish the accident wouldn’t have stolen away such a talented actress from the world.
