Hayley Mills
(Actor)
.. Charlie Hawksworth
Born:
April 18, 1946
in
London
Best Known For:
Being John's daughter.
Early-life:
Hayley Catherine Rose Vivien Mills was born on April 18, 1946, in London. She's the middle child of actor John Mills and writer Mary Hayley Bell's three offspring. Elder sister Juliet is also an actress, while younger brother Jonathan is writer and producer. Spending lots of time with her parents and their famous friends as a child made her precocious, although her boarding school peers claim she was shy among people her own age. However, she found solace appearing in school plays.
Career:
Mills' bright personality inspired director J Lee Thompson to cast her in Tiger Bay in 1959. Walt Disney's wife, Lilian, saw the film and suggested she should play the lead in Pollyanna. It made her a global star, and won her a special Oscar. Mills became the most popular child star of the era thanks to films such as The Parent Trap, Whistle Down the Wind and That Darn Cat! The controversial nature of 1966's The Family Way hurt her wholesome image, and although she's worked steadily ever since on stage and screen, Mills' career never reached its former heights again. From 2007 to 2012, Mills played Caroline in ITV drama Wild at Heart.
Quote:
"Acting is just a natural thing in my family. Other boys and girls go into the family business. So do we."
Trivia:
Mills made her stage debut in a 1966 West End revival of Peter Pan.
