Jessica Tandy Fast Facts:

Made her professional stage debut in London at age 16.
First film appearance was in 1932's The Indiscretions of Eve, where she played a maid.
Created the role of faded, fragile Southern flower Blanche DuBois in Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire on Broadway in 1947. Her costars Marlon Brando, Kim Hunter and Karl Malden all reprised their roles in the 1951 film version, but Tandy was replaced by Vivien Leigh, who was thought to be a more marketable movie star at the time.
Collaborated with husband Hume Cronyn in many plays and films over the course of their 52-year marriage.
Appeared in Hitchcock's 1963 thriller The Birds, which was one of her rare film appearances between 1950 and 1980.
Experienced a career renaissance later in life, when she appeared alongside husband Hume Cronyn in Ron Howard's 1985 sci-fi fantasy, Cocoon, and then went on to win an Oscar at age 80 for her performance in 1989's Driving Miss Daisy.
