She first found success in the stage version of Love on the Dole, and in 1936 married the author Ronald Gow. Her performance in Love on the Dole attracted the attention of George Bernard Shaw, and he cast her in several of his plays, including Saint Joan, Pygmalion and Major Barbara. Unlike other actresses of her generation, she did relatively little Shakespeare, preferring the more modern dramatists such as Henrik Ibsen and new plays adapted from the novels of Henry James and Thomas Hardy among others.Her impressive film debut in Pygmalion earned her a nomination for an Oscar in 1938 for her role as Eliza Doolittle.

She followed up this success with another Shaw classic, Major Barbara, in 1941, and starred in the 1945

Powell & Pressburger classic I Know Where I'm Going. Despite these and several other notable performances, she remained primarily a stage actress. Nevertheless, she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar in 1958 for the film Separate Tables, and was nominated again in 1966 for her performance as Dame Alice (wife of Sir Thomas More) in A Man for All Seasons. The tragic and abused colonial wife in Outcast of the Islands (1952), her complex performance as the possessive mother in Sons and Lovers (1960) and as the wonderfully grotesque Russian Princess in Murder on the Orient Express (1974) are also considered particularly memorable.In the course of her stage career, Wendy Hiller won popular and critical acclaim in both London and New York. She excelled at rather plain but strong willed characters, most notably in The Heiress, Waters of the Moon, Flowering Cherry and The Aspern Papers.

She was nominated for Broadway's Tony Award in 1958 as Best Dramatic Actress for her performance in Eugene O'Neill's A Moon for the Misbegotten. Later West End successes such as Queen Mary in Crown Matrimonial in 1972 proved she was not limited to playing dejected, emotionally deprived women.Wendy Hiller was made a Dame Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire in 1975. Regarded as one of Britain's great dramatic talents, her style was disciplined and unpretentious, and she abhorred personal publicity.Dame Wendy's final West End performance was the title role in Driving Miss Daisy in 1988. She made many notable television appearances in the 1980s, including Miss Morrison's Ghosts (1981) and the BBC dramatization of the Vita Sackville-West novel All Passion Spent (1986). She eventually retired from acting in 1992.

She died at her home in Beaconsfield in 2003 at the age of 90.The above information was compiled with the help of Wikipedia, and does not necessarily reflect the views of BMD Certificates.
