Born into a theatrical family and shaped by the London Blitz, she became known for her charming performances in films like "Doctor in the House." Her personal life was marked by passionate affairs, notably with Rex Harrison, whom she married shortly before her leukemia diagnosis. The book features insights from family and friends, along with a complete filmography and rare photographs.
