    Christina Aziz

    British actress, born on October 28, 1902 in Lewisham, London, England, UK as Elsa Sullivan Lanchester. She received the Golden Globe Award in 1958 for the movie Witness for the Prosecution (1957). She married actor Charles Laughton (1929-1962) and remained with him until his death. Among her most important works are The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) and Mary Poppins (1964). She had a great desire to become a classical dancer, so her mother made her study dance in Paris under Isadora Duncan at the age of ten and sent her to a boarding school in England to take dance and music lessons. After her graduation, she worked as a dance teacher. She founded the Children’s Theater in Soho, London, and a nightclub in which she sang and performed in some one-act plays. In 1925, she began working in British cinema, and in 1932, she signed a contract with MGM to move to Hollywood to work in American cinema. She presented the best horror films at that time, such as The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), and sang on Broadway. In the forties, she returned to London to work on its theaters, concert halls, and films. She died on December 26, 1986 in Woodland Hills, Los Angeles, California, USA, of bronchial pneumonia.
