Acclaimed actress & youth advocate
Exclusive Representation by Greater Talent Network
Artistic and critical success, as well as money and fame, came to Mia Farrow at an early age. Following her young life in 1940's Hollywood as the daughter of Hollywood royalty, she gained national attention through her role in the television classic "Peyton Place." Farrow went on to star in over forty movies, including such classics as "Rosemary's Baby," "The Great Gatsby," and "Hannah and Her Sisters." As successful as her professional life was, her personal life was marked with many struggles, leading her to begin a journey toward a significant life.
As the mother of fourteen children, ten of whom are adopted, Mia Farrow has now devoted her life to humanitarian efforts and the care of a truly remarkable family. Farrow has been a high profile advocate for children's rights, working to raise funds and awareness for children in conflict affected regions, predominantly Africa. She is a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and has worked extensively to draw attention to the fight to eradicate polio, which she survived as a child.
Her latest humanitarian effort raises awareness of the genocide occurring in Darfur, Chad and Central African Republic. At the podium, Farrow shares photographs from her trips to Darfur in 2004, 2006 and 2007, bearing witness to the desperation of the people of the region. Connecting to the humanity in all us, she reminds us of our moral responsibility to assure that "never again" are not just words. In an absolutely unforgettable and challenging program, Farrow addresses what compels her to continue this work despite grave personal risk and shares how every individual can help.
Farrow reflected on her ever-evolving life journey in her sincere and candid bestseller, What Falls Away. In what Newsweek calls "a simply elegant memoir," she presents a revealing and candid account of her personal struggles, her numerous professional successes, and her passionate and sincere commitment to the children of the world. Expanding on this memoir, Farrow graces the lecture stage with her eloquence and honesty in a unique presentation that is sure to inspire any audience.
At A Glance: Farrow's earliest memories come from the walled gardens and rocky shores of western Ireland, a time and place where she experienced multiple hardships as a young girl. The onset of polio at age nine and the deaths of two family members several years later profoundly affected her as a child and shattered any sense of family security. Making steps to put these misfortunes behind her, Farrow began her journey to the heights of Hollywood.
