Private Faces: The Autobiography
of Sian Phillips
Description
Siân Phillips triumphed in the West End last year with her performance in Marlene. It was a tour de force of her acting career which has spanned over 40 years. In this exceptional autobiography covering her early life she writes of her unlikely beginnings growing up as an only child in the remote Welsh countryside, a life which hadn't changed for centuries. But Siân determined to be an actress at an early age and was working in BBC Radio from the age of 11 alongside such greats as Dylan Thomas and Richard Burton. Her real ambitions were not realised, however, until she won a scholarship to RADA. Leaving her first, short lived marriage, the country bumpkin arrived in London to learn her trade and fall in love with Peter O'Toole...
