Juliet Anne Virginia Stevenson CBE (born October 30, 1956) is an English actress.
Stevenson was born in Essex, England. She studied at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London, which led to a stage career starting in the early 1980s with the Royal Shakespeare Company. Although she has gained fame through her television and film work, and has often undertaken roles for BBC radio, she is still primarily a stage actress. Her notable stage roles included the female lead opposite John Malkovich in the UK premier of Burn This in 1990.
Stevenson is best known for her leading role in the film Truly, Madly, Deeply (1991), and her roles in Emma (1996), Bend It Like Beckham (2002) and Mona Lisa Smile (2003). She has more recently starred in Pierrepoint (2006) (U.S. title Pierrepoint: The Last Hangman), Infamous (2006) as Diana Vreeland and Breaking and Entering (2006) as Rosemary, the therapist.
Education
According to Who's Who on Television (1982 edition), Stevenson was educated at the independent St Catherine's School in Bramley, near Guildford in Surrey, and at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA).
