EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting black-and-white portrait, a young Julie Andrews, born on February 1, 1935, gracefully curtseys at the age of 12, showcasing her natural elegance and poise. Taken in 1947, this image captures the budding talent and charm that would later make her an international star. Julie Andrews, who turned 87 in 2022, began her performing career at a young age. She started singing in local productions and eventually joined the Welsh National Opera Company as a chorus member. Her captivating voice and stage presence soon caught the attention of casting directors, leading to her first professional role in the West End production of "H.M.S. Pinafore" in 1948. This photograph, however, predates her professional debut and offers a glimpse into the life of Julie Andrews before she became a household name. The curtsey, a traditional gesture of respect and politeness, highlights her grace and refinement, qualities that would serve her well in her future acting and singing careers. Andrews' impressive resume includes starring roles in iconic films such as "Mary Poppins," "The Sound of Music," and "Victor/Victoria." Her versatility as an actress and singer has earned her numerous accolades, including two Academy Awards, two Golden Globes, and a Grammy Award. This portrait of a teenage Julie Andrews serves as a reminder of her humble beginnings and the extraordinary talent that was destined to captivate audiences around the world.
