In this deeply personal and moving memoir, Audrey Hepburn's son, Luca Dotti, shares intimate memories and insights about his beloved mother. From her early days as a struggling actress to her rise to Hollywood stardom, from her humanitarian work to her private life, Dotti paints a vivid portrait of a woman who was both an icon and a devoted mother.

Hepburn was born in Brussels, Belgium, in 1929. Her father left the family when she was young, and she was raised by her mother, a Dutch baroness. Hepburn studied ballet in London and Amsterdam, and made her film debut in 1948. She rose to stardom in the early 1950s with roles in such films as Roman Holiday, Sabrina, and Breakfast at Tiffany's. Hepburn was known for her elegance, grace, and beauty, and she became one of the most iconic actresses of all time.

Beyond her film career, Hepburn was also a dedicated humanitarian. She worked with UNICEF for over 30 years, and she was a Goodwill Ambassador for the organization from 1989 until her death in 1993. Hepburn was a tireless advocate for children, and she helped to raise awareness of the plight of children around the world.

In Audrey Hepburn: An Elegant Spirit Son Remembers, Dotti shares his personal memories of his mother, as well as his insights into her character and her work. Dotti writes about Hepburn's love of life, her sense of humor, and her unwavering commitment to her family and her work. He also discusses Hepburn's struggles with depression and anxiety, and her eventual triumph over these challenges.

Audrey Hepburn: An Elegant Spirit Son Remembers is a must-read for fans of Audrey Hepburn and anyone interested in the life of a true icon. Dotti's memoir is a deeply personal and moving portrait of a woman who was both a beloved mother and a global humanitarian.
