Eleanor Bron is an English stage, film and television actress and author.
Background
Bron was born in 1938 in Stanmore, Middlesex. Before her birth, her father Sidney had legally shortened the surname from Bronstein to Bron as an effort to enhance his newly-founded commercial enterprise, Bron's Orchestral Service. Her brother Gerry explained the change simply: "Bronstein's Orchestral Service was a bit of a mouthful."
Education
Eleanor attended North London Collegiate School and Newnham College.
