She felt that since she was not born with natural beauty and talent that she had to work harder than all the rest just to achieve their level. At the end of the sixties she retired from Hollywood but appeared from time to time on the set for a few films. During the last years of Audrey's life is what might be considered by most to be her greatest achievement and an example of self-less giving. This came about because she too was once starving child herself after World War ll. She wanted to help the organization that hod once helped her.
Most celebrities are happy to help worthy causes, but only to lend their names.
But Audrey wanted to do more than that. She wanted to whole-heartedly commit herself to the project. She was a healer and knew how to love. Most people that have been through the kind of pain that she went through as a child would only be bitter. It only made her more willing to love and give of herself.
