BBC NEWS | UK | Wales | South East Wales | Sarandon learns about Welsh roots Sarandon learns about Welsh roots Susan Sarandon visited locations in Wales with her family Oscar-winning actress Susan Sarandon's search for her family history has brought her to Wales. Born Susan Abigail Tomalin in New York, the Hollywood star has been tracing her family tree for a BBC programme. After Ms Sarandon and her brother provided DNA samples, a genetics expert said they were "clearly very Welsh". Professor Bryan Sykes, head of human genetics at Oxford University, who analysed the samples, said Sarandon was "delighted" with the outcome. He said: "Ms Sarandon had genetic proof after her long search." Professor Bryan Sykes has conducted lengthy genetic surveys Sarandon - who won a best actress Oscar for Dead Man Walking - discovered her roots through research for the BBC series Coming Home, which traces family trees. Prof Sykes appears on the programme to explain the results to Miss Sarandon. He said it was strange to meet someone with such a familiar face: "I felt I knew her. She was so like I expected her to be." Analysis of the star's maternal DNA showed she had Italian ancestry on that side of her family, he said.

However after looking at her brother's DNA, to determine her paternal ancestry, they found Ms Sarandon's links to Wales through her father, Phillip Leslie Tomalin. The genealogy of the Tomalin family goes back to 1280 in Carmarthenshire where the oldest records of a Tomalin are held. Sarandon met up with relatives for a drink at the Llynfi Arms Prof Sykes has conducted a lengthy survey collecting samples from over 10,000 volunteers to create a genetic map of the British Isles. His book, Blood of the Isles, chronicles the process which includes a large portion on the genetics of Wales. During September, Ms Sarandon joined long-lost Welsh relatives at the Llynfi Arms in Tondu, near Bridgend. She brought members of her own family including her son Miles. Following the visit, Sarandon flew to Italy to meet more relatives found through the programme.

She is of Italian (mother) and English, Irish, Welsh, and German (father) descent. Soon after the 1968 Democratic convention, there was a casting call for a film with several roles for the kind of young people who had disrupted the convention. Two recent graduates of Catholic University in Washington DC, went to the audition in New York for Joe (1970). Chris Sarandon , who had studied to be an actor, was passed over. His wife Susan got a major role.

Five years later, Sarandon made the film where fans of cult classics have come to know her as "Janet", who gets entangled with transvestite "Dr. Frank 'n' Furter" in The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975). More than 15 years after beginning her career Sarandon at last actively campaigned for a great role, Annie in Bull Durham (1988), flying at her own expense from Rome to Los Angeles. "It was such a wonderful script ... and did away with a lot of myths and challenged the American definition of success", she said. "When I got there, I spent some time with Kevin Costner , kissed some ass at the studio and got back on a plane". Her romance with the Bull Durham (1988) supporting actor, Tim Robbins , had produced two sons by 1992 and put Sarandon in the position of leaving her domestic paradise only to accept roles that really challenged her.

The result was four Academy Award nominations in the 1990s and best actress for Dead Man Walking (1995).

Said her most grueling audition process was for the female lead in the Marlon Brando / Jack Nicholson vehicle The Missouri Breaks (1976), because she was repeatedly called back in for readings over a period of six weeks but ultimately lost out to "a gal who didn't do much after that" ( Kathleen Lloyd ).

Personal Quotes (52) I choose projects I can talk about for days because now you do publicity for as long as it took you to shoot the movie.

I feel I've always been on the outside and always on the edge of an abyss. The women I portray, and the woman I am, are ordinary but maybe find themselves in extra-ordinary circumstances, and what they do is at great cost. Sexuality... is something that develops and becomes stronger and stronger the older you get... If you can continue to say yes to life and to maintain a certain generosity of spirit, you become more and more of who you are. I think the only reason I remain an actor is that you can never quite get it right. So there is a challenge to it. If I were 22 and trying to build a career, I don't know who'd be watching the kids as happily as I do. It takes so much to get me to break out of domestic paradise. There's hardly anything that interests me as much as my family. On Thelma & Louise (1991) after her nomination for best actress, 1992, "I was surprised that the film struck such a primal nerve. I knew when we were filming that it would be different, unusual and hopefully entertaining. But shocking? I guess giving women the option of violence was hard for a lot of people to accept".

People will like you for the wrong reasons your entire life, even if you don't have parents who are celebrities. They will like you because you have a car or you have money or your breasts are big. You're so lucky in Ireland, England and Spain. Everyone there already knows what it's like to have inexplicable terrorist violence. The thing that's bad about breasts is that you have to choose between having a mind and having breasts. It'd be nice if you could have both. Anyway, I think my breasts have been highly overrated. The largest party in the United States is the 50 percent who don't vote. It's always so painful to watch yourself. That never changes. I still sit there and think, "Oh, that scene is missing? Wasn't I good? What happened there?". I haven't yet had any plastic surgery, but I won't knock it. I think women have the right to do anything they want to their bodies that makes them feel good about themselves. It's hard to be in this business and be viewed on a screen that's huge. You can see every single line. But I think it's an aesthetic choice for the individual.

I don't like it when surgeons take a perfectly interesting looking woman and she ends up looking like a female impersonator with these gigantic breasts. It's just so extreme and that worries me. I think everyone is looking the same. My children were embarrassed at my Lincoln Center Tribute. I forgot they would show film clips and my children hadn't seen anything. Every time something a little racy would come on like The Hunger (1983), I'd look at my 13-year-old, who was shielding his eyes. I'm certainly not an expert, but Tim and I just celebrated 17 years together, which in Hollywood years I think is 45. I think the key is just focusing on this one person and not keeping one eye on the door to see who might be better. I never think about humiliating myself. I keep focusing on wanting to do a good job. I think one of the reasons I haven't married Tim is that I hate that couples assumption - that once you're committed to someone you stop treating each other as individuals. I like getting up knowing I am choosing to be with that person.

I've maintained a fairly low standard of living in terms of cars, houses and planes and in that way I don't have to make a huge amount of money to maintain my lifestyle. Every film is political in that it tells you some idea: What do women want? What does it mean to be a man? What is just? What is funny? What can you laugh at? What is not funny? So we notice the ones that challenge the status quo. [on taking political stances] I think it's a riot that people think that actors do this as a hobby or that somehow it's gonna help your career. If you look at the number of people that are active, it's miniscule. This whole myth about 'Liberal Hollywood' ... the people with the power in Hollywood are the wealthy people and the bulk of them is not liberal. Hollywood is not political. I remember going to great lengths to celebrate disappointments like not getting a job. I'd take whatever little cash I had and go out to dinner. I saw loss as an opportunity to change direction. The difference between theatre and film is kind of like the difference between making love and masturbation. You have to be careful not to be upstaged by your breasts.

I've gotten curvier as I've gotten older. Directors cast the men they want to be and the women they want to have. I think I've survived because I've gone through a number of incarnations. Sometimes they need somebody sexy. Sometimes they need somebody smart. I've managed to be able to morph myself into parts. People probably think of me as Debbie Downer. I have become kind of a joke in terms of activism for some people. But it is like worrying if your slip is showing when you're fleeing a burning building. You have to prioritize. I thought the whole point of feminism is that you're not supposed to be defined by gender. I don't understand the reasoning behind that, because I wouldn't vote for Condoleezza Rice , and I hated Margaret Thatcher . Despite the statistics, nothing is hopeless, nothing is futile. We can do so much to protect children with awareness, knowledge, and a lot of love. [on Thelma & Louise (1991)] The thing that separates this from a revenge movie with two males, for instance, is that there is a moral price to be paid by me for losing it, as you learn later, because I had been raped.

I go into some kind of little trance there and just overreact. But I think the whole rest of the movie from that point on operates under the knowledge for this character that she is going to have to pay a price, and that there is no joy, really, in that revenge. it was important for me, as the movie went on, to try and figure out why these things keep happening, not to make it about getting even. So we tried in all the rest of the scenes to ask questions, or to make it clear, that she's on some kind of search for an understanding of this moment. When I take off all my jewelry and my watch, I think I'm preparing to go into a zone where she feels she had to pay some kind of a price. That was very much in my mind from that moment on in the film. On mothering: Children can reinvent your world for you. [About people criticizing Thelma & Louise (1991) for its violence and "anti-male" attitude] It shows what a straight, white male world movies traditionally occupy.

This kind of scrutiny does not happen to Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) or that Schwarzenegger thing [ Total Recall (1990)] where he shoots a woman in the head and says, "Consider that a divorce". (1995, on the conception of her love scene in The Hunger (1983) and stereotypes men have about lesbianism) They felt that I should be really drunk so that was their way of taking away her choice in a sense, and I insisted that it not be that way, that certainly, you know, you wouldn't have to get drunk to bed Catherine Deneuve . I don't care what your sexual history to that point had been. It was much more interesting that she went voluntarily. [...] I don't think, for better or worse, that women are taken very seriously in this area. I think the feeling is when two women are together, then it's probably experimental or some kind of phase and if the right guy came along, that would all change. So it's actually something that straight men can watch and not be threatened by. And straight men are the ones that are propelling the industry forward, so I don't think it's taken that seriously.

(1995, on relationships) I think the concept that there's one person who's gonna make you whole, this Gibran kind of thinking, is so detrimental. I don't think it's the other person's responsibility to make you whole at all. It's the other person's responsibility to make you laugh, to give you a dance now and then, to read the newspaper and tell you about things you don't have time to read about, to introduce you to music you don't know, to tell you when you're full of shit, to fight fair, to be good in bed, to say, "Come on, let's go have an adventure" when you've become a little bit of a stick in the mud. But it's not their job to make you whole. The test for me of a great romantic relationship is how productive you are during the relationship. You don't need somebody who's gonna keep you up till four in the morning and you don't even know why you're fighting. You don't need somebody who you're gonna go to a party and you're worried about that they're gonna get jealous, laid, drunk, stoned, or turn up missing.

I like to go to a party and go my way and let somebody else go their way, and you meet up or you don't meet up and then you go home together and nobody feels bad about it. That's the perfect description of life, too- the party of life. I've been very lucky to find someone. We've been incredibly productive since we've been together. (1995, on having to do movie re-shoots) White Palace (1990). We shot the ending that was in the book, which is: she sits down, they look at each other, and you don't know what's gonna happen between them. But Pretty Woman (1990) had just come out, and they were thinking, "If we could only get him to marry her and they could have a big laugh." Jimmy [ James Spader ] and I, we fought and fought, trying to keep our characters intact, but we did two re-shoots on that. On Sweet Hearts Dance (1988), that was a different problem, in that Don Johnson kind of threw the script out.

So what happened was we had to do a month of re-shoots at two different times to put back things that had been taken out...The real mistake with that movie was that I thought it was about one thing, and they decided it was about these two guys who were never gonna grow up, a male-bonding thing. And who cares about that? (1995, on being the eldest of nine children) I was the mother of everybody. And it took me a long time to understand that I didn't have to mother every guy I was with. When I stopped doing that, things got better. When I became a mother, all of these things I had been practicing with grown men made sense, because this was the right time to do it. I was definitely one of those Sixties girls with flowers in my hair and no bra and was influenced by certain drugs of that period, like cannabis or acid. But I always remind my kids that drugs are illegal. Some are a lot of fun, but some can kill you first time out. Mind-expanding drugs - like acid - are very different from the crack and heroin that's around these days. My kids asked me if I used crack, which I thought was funny.

I mean, they didn't even have crack then, to show you how far back I go! I believe in love and trust and commitment, but not in marriage. Marriage may do something for lawyers and mothers, but not for husbands and wives. I deal with reality, with the feelings I have at the moment. And then I go on from there. [on Brad Pitt and Geena Davis in Thelma & Louise (1991)] The day they did their scenes in bed was the only day they watched the dailies right through, which was suspicious to me. [It] was a very long lunch. I really respect filmmakers who manage to have lives, do the films the way they want to do them, have a sense of irony and humor about themselves and aren't crippled by the terrible things this business does to you, and how it breaks your heart when films are not released properly. It's better to have made decisions that turned out badly and learn from them than to feel as if you had no choice and are resentful of the turns that your life takes. My life has been filled with happy accidents. The thing that's served me well is being able to change onto a different track when it's presented itself.

[Interview with George Stark , 2014] [on the death of James Gandolfini ] So sad to lose James Gandolfini. One of the sweetest, funniest, most generous actors I've ever worked with. Sending prayers to his family. [in 1993 on Richard Gere ] Richard has been in a lot of good films, but he's never been in a great one. [her rationale for turning down a role in Tightrope (1984)] The link between violence and sex was very strong. I met with Clint Eastwood and I said, "Aren't you worried, especially you, who everybody thinks is like Man Personified, when your character starts to do some of this stuff, that it's going to have a link between sex and violence and treating women badly?" And he said, "I don't think that it's my job to worry about that, I'm an actor." Men very often can see sex as a way of solving a problem, where women want the problem solved beforehand. I couldn't live in Hollywood; it's too much of a company town. I never look at the trade papers.

I used to, but I was scandalized by reading about actors who made deals before they read the script. How could they possibly do that? When things are going well, I like to have people to share it with. I've been alone in troubled times, and I don't mind that. Some things have to be endured alone. As Hemingway said, the human being is strong in all the broken places. [on her split from Tim Robbins ] People were coming up to me in the street and saying "I cried and cried when I heard." Well, I was sadder! I didn't think it would ever happen, either. I am very romantic. For a women of my age and station, I have not been around very much at all. I've never developed that sportive kind of attitude toward sex. Thank God, as it turns out. [on negative reviews] Those kind of reviews don't bother me because I've been through some really dry periods. If anything's helped me through those times, it's the fact that I started out as a character actor. I see myself as having a little flashlight that lets you get information that you're not getting, and then you make up your mind yourself how to act.

[about Prozac] I don't want to go on record as saying that nobody should be on it, but where are the artists going to come from? I think that every birthing is difficult and painful, and that sometimes you have every right to feel angry, and you have every right to feel miserable. And you have to get to the core of what that's about. Medication alone is not going to do it. So I think sometimes you have to just go there. And out of that will come a really interesting person. I get paid a pretty good salary to do something that's very childish. So how can I complain about anything? I'm such a victim of inertia. I need a structure that puts me in a microcosm of some kind. I don't vote with my vagina. Salary (3) Susan Abigail Tomalin Bio - Susan Sarandon Net Worth Susan Abigail Tomalin Bio Read more... Susan Sarandon Susan Sarandon Net Worth is $50 Million.

An Oscar-winner for her role in the somber drama Dead Man Walking (1995), Susan Sarandon's early stardom came from her performance as the wide-eyed bride in 1975's midnight-movie cult hit The Rocky Horror Picture Show (with Tim Curry).

Since 1980's Atlantic City (starring Burt Lancaster, she has played worldy-wise women of a certain sexy maturity -- famous for loving it up with Catherine Deneuve and David Bowie in The Hunger (1983), for seducing baseball players Kevin Costner and Tim Robbins in Bull Durham (1988) and for leading Geena Davis down a dangerous path in Thelma and Louise (1991). A Hollywood leading lady of the 1990s, she starred in Lorenzo's Oil (1992, with Nick Nolte), The Client (1994, with Tommy Lee Jones) and Stepmom (1998, with Julia Roberts). Now she's equally famous as an outspoken opponent of Republican politics and the George W. Bush administration. A familiar face at the box office, Sarandon's other films include The Banger Sisters (2002, with Goldie Hawn), Moonlight Mile (2002, with Jake Gyllenhaal), Elizabethtown (2005, with Orlando Bloom) and Enchanted (2007, with Amy Adams).

Sarandon announced in 2009 that she was splitting from her longtime companion, actor Tim Robbins. The two never married but were together for 21 years, having met on the set of Bull Durham in 1988. They had two sons: Jack (b. 1989) and Miles (b. 1992). She was formerly married to actor Chris Sarandon. links SUSAN SARANDON (Susan Abigail Tomalin) Biography, Pictures, Quotes, Photos, Videos, News SUSAN SARANDON (Susan Abigail Tomalin) Biography, Pictures, Quotes, Photos, Videos, News SUSAN SARANDON (Susan Abigail Tomalin) SARANDON, SUSAN (Susan Abigail Tomalin) (1946– ) Actress Known for depicting complex, independent, and sensual women, film star Susan Sarandon was born Susan Abigail Tomalin on October 4, 1946, in Metuchen, New Jersey. The eldest of nine children, she left home to attend Catholic University in Washington, D.C., where she majored in drama. While still in college, she married her first love, actor Chris Sarandon.

During this time, she also became politically active. As a student, she was arrested several times for participating in civil rights and antiwar rallies. Susan Sarandon won her first movie role when she accompanied her husband to a casting call for Joe (1970). She was given the female lead, playing an ill-fated young hippie. Soon Sarandon was being offered an array of ingenue roles. As she later admitted, she at first had trouble taking acting seriously, which led her to accept insubstantial parts that showcased her beauty more than her talent. Her best early role came in The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975), the cult horror movie spoof that gave Sarandon a rare chance to sing on screen. Sarandon found her breakout roles in two films directed by Louis Malle, with whom she was romantically linked after her 1979 divorce from Chris Sarandon. In Pretty Baby (1978), she played a prostitute in early 20th-century New Orleans, and in Atlantic City (1980), she depicted a croupier longing for a more glamorous life. Her appearance in these ambitious, offbeat films showed Sarandon’s growing interest in unconventional parts.

One of her most daring choices was to star in The Hunger (1983), a moody horror film in which she played a love scene with French star Catherine Deneuve. In Compromising Positions (1985), a slight comic murder mystery, Sarandon proved that she could carry a movie on her own. Still, she had to lobby hard to earn the part of Annie Savoy, a passionate baseball fanatic, in the romantic comedy Bull Durham (1988). At 42, Sarandon was initially thought to be too old to play the role. She changed the mind of director Ron Sheldon by coming to a meeting in a tight red-and-white dress. “It was fabulous. It was like something Sophia Loren would have worn,” Sheldon later remembered. With the success of Bull Durham, Sarandon challenged the Hollywood assumption that the public wanted to see only young women in sexy roles. On the set of Bull Durham, Sarandon met costar Tim Robbins, who became her long-term partner. The couple has had two children, Jack Henry and Miles. Their family also includes Sarandon’s daughter, Eva Maria Livia Amurri, from an earlier relationship with director Franco Amurri.

Sarandon and Robbins have worked together on several projects, including Bob Roberts (1992) and The Cradle Will Rock (1999), both written and directed by Robbins. They also share an interest in social causes, such as women’s rights, homelessness, and help for people with AIDS. They angered many film industry insiders by speaking out against the United States’s immigration restrictions on Haitians while presenting an award at the 1993 Academy Awards ceremony. Sarandon’s political activism, however, seemed to have no ill effect on her career. At an age when many actresses have trouble finding work, she was offered some of her most interesting roles. In 1991, she costarred with Geena Davis in Thelma and Louise, a story of two friends on the lam from the police that sparked a national debate on the state of American feminism. Other notable parts included a frantic mother of a dying child in Lorenzo’s Oil (1992), a sympathetic drug dealer in Light Sleeper (1992), and a struggling lawyer in The Client (1994).

Perhaps Sarandon’s most powerful performance of the 1990s was in Dead Man Walking (1995). Written and directed by Robbins, the film told the true story of a nun who befriended a killer on death row. After four Oscar nominations, Sarandon’s deft handling of the challenging and unglamorous lead role finally won her the Academy Award for best actress. Sarandon has since earned critical acclaim in such serious films as Safe Passage (1995), while also scoring popular hits with such crowd-pleasers as Stepmom (1998) and Rugrats in Paris: The Movie (2000). At the same time, she has emerged as one of Hollywood’s best character actors by seeking out a wide array of parts. As Sarandon herself has explained. “[T]he whole point of acting is to experiment and learn—it’s like living hundreds of lives in one lifetime.” Further Reading Smith, Gavin. “Susan Sarandon: Uncompromising Positions.” Film Comment.

In Pictures: Susan Sarandon in Ludgershall In Pix: Susan Sarandon in Wiltshire > It was back in September 2006 that the Hollywood superstar, Susan Sarandon, set off on the quest to track down her Welsh roots with the cameras of BBC Wales optimistically in tow. But it was an ancestral trip that not only saw her in the depths of Wiltshire but returning again and again to the tiny village of Ludgershall. Born Susan Abigail Tomalin, the Oscar winning actress had always believed that her roots were Welsh.

Looking over the Parish records And with a surname derived from the Welsh name Thomas it certainly seemed to make sense: "Of course when I started acting, all these very interesting actors were Welsh, and it just sounded like a very kinda explosive background," said Susan. "I was very happy to think that I was part Welsh, but I knew so little so I was open to anything." Which was just as well as not only was she about to find out that four generations of her family actually lay in the heart of Wiltshire but that her past held tales of poverty, illegitimacy and law-breaking. A criminal past It was Winifred Dixon, the church warden at St. James' Church in Ludgershall, who uncovered the proof that the Dead Man Walking star had a criminal past. St.

James' church, Ludgershall It was Susan's Great Great Uncle, to be precise, who'd been the culprit being caught in the act in the woods at Amport in 1818: "Young Charles Guyatt at the age of 17 was committed to the assize court for a felony," says Winifred, "he'd killed a coney - a rabbit - and he'd used a net and a ferret to chase it." Given a six month sentence, for poaching, the young Charles Guyatt had not been able to face returning to his home village of Ludgershall: "The name Guyatt seems to have died out in this area after that," says Winifred. "They went away, after the felony was committed, probably because they felt ashamed." In fact Susan's Great Great Uncle must have felt deeply ashamed as he was not only tracked down to Bridgend in Glamorgan but finally turned up in a Welsh-owned ironworks in the Ukraine: "Now we have our Welsh connection to Wales," says Susan. "Now I see - through crime we got to Wales.

Excellent!" Susan Sarandon with Winifred Dixon Spunky Susanna Meanwhile back in Ludgershall the actress' Great Great Grandmother – Sophia Guyatt had tied the knot with local labourer James Beams and in 1853 given birth to a daughter... Susanna Beams aka Susan's Great Grandmother. Nick-named 'Spunky Susanna', by the 61-year-old actress, the Ludgershall lass was still a teenager when she escaped rural poverty and made the move to London to become a domestic servant at a grand house in Portman Square. A few years on, at the age of just 23, she'd not only met and married Susan's Great Grandfather, William Tomalin, but had followed him out to America making the voyage alone to New York on the SS Aragon: "That's very romantic on her part," says Susan, "or desperate." Either way, Spunky Susanna's emigration to the States from the small Wiltshire village of Ludgershall is why Susan Sarandon calls New York home… and would, it seems, make the Hollywood actress more Wiltshire then Welsh...
