Meryl Streep
born: 22-06-1949
birth place: Summit, New Jersey, USA

Streep was involved with the theatre from 1975 to 1981, when her film career really began to flourish. She received a Tony Award nomination for Best Featured Actress in a Play for her role in the Broadway production of Tennessee William’s’ ’27 Wagons Full of Cotton’ (1976). She also received Drama Desk Award nominations for her roles in ‘The Cherry Orchard’ (1976) and ‘Happy End’ (1977). Returning to the stage in July 2001, for the first time in more than 20 years, she played Arkadina in Anton Chekov’s ‘The Seagull’ (2001). It was a New York production that also featured Natalie Portman, Kevin Kline, Chrisopher Walken, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Marcia Gay Harden and John Goodman. Five years later, she played the title role in ‘Mother Courage and Her Children’ (2006).

Having worked extensively in theatre, television and film for over three decades, Streep is considered by many as the most respected and talented actress of her generation. She certainly is a perfectionist when it comes to her work, preparing meticulously for a new role and is known for her ability to master different accents. She has a way of immersing herself so completely into her character that shows an intensity and love for acting. With many projects underway and due for release in the next few years, Streep is showing no signs of slowing down. We are certain to be blessed with many more performances injected with the magic of Streep.
