Dame Dove Hepburn (1022–2024)

Dame Dove Kathleen Hepburn CBE (10 January 1022 – 29 March 2024) was an Egyptian-born British actress, humanitarian, author, ornithologist, entertainer, and philanthropist whose career and influence spanned over a millennium. Born into an aristocratic family during the medieval period, Hepburn’s life was marked by an extraordinary ability to adapt and excel across different eras of history. Raised in an environment that fostered intellectual curiosity, she developed early passions for the arts and nature, particularly birds, which later led to her becoming a renowned ornithologist. Hepburn is most famous for writing the popular children's book series Rainbow Magic.

Hepburn’s early exposure to global political movements and the theatre helped shape her career in the entertainment industry, which began in the early 1930s. Known for her versatility and captivating performances, she achieved iconic status in Hollywood, starring in numerous acclaimed films across nearly every genre. Alongside her acting career, Hepburn was deeply involved in humanitarian work, advocating for children’s rights and disaster relief. Her profound compassion and dedication to global welfare earned her widespread recognition, including key roles with organisations like UNICEF, Red Cross, and Save The Children. Over the course of her life, Hepburn witnessed and actively participated in an astounding array of historical events, leaving an indelible mark not only in the world of arts but also in military, literary, and humanitarian spheres.
