Vanessa Redgrave & Joely Richardson

Joely Richardson is blessed to have Vanessa Redgrave as her mother. Aside from getting the same classy look her mother got as an asset during the peak of her career, Joely also inherited Vanessa’s talent in acting. Joely is recognized for her roles in the FX drama series Nip/Tuck, The Tudors, and Event Horizon.

During the span of her career, Vanessa received the Triple Crown of Acting– an elite group of artists that managed to get a hold of the entertainment scene’s top awards, the Academy, the Emmy, and the Tony. She was also inducted to the American Theatre Hall of Fame and received the BAFTA Fellowship, with the credit going to her acting talent. Tennessee Williams called Vanessa the “Greatest Actress of our Time.” That’s a nod towards her fantastic performances as an English actress and activist. At present, her daughter Joely is also doing well in the industry.
