Anjelica Huston

About the author

Anjelica Huston, born in 1951, emerged from Hollywood aristocracy as the daughter of legendary director John Huston. Beyond her acclaimed acting career, spanning four decades with an Academy Award for 'Prizzi's Honor,' Huston has established herself as a distinguished memoirist and cultural commentator. Her literary voice combines intimate personal narrative with broader observations on artistic lineage, cultural displacement, and identity formation.

'A Story Lately Told' represents her first major autobiographical work, drawing upon her unique position as both insider and observer of artistic and social milieus across Ireland, London, and New York during transformative decades of the twentieth century.
