Biografía y filmografía

Lillian Gish

Lillian Diana Gish (14 de octubre de 1893 - 27 de febrero de 1993) fue una actriz de teatro, cine y televisión estadounidense cuya carrera cinematográfica abarcó 75 años, de 1912 a 1987.

Fue una destacada estrella de cine de las décadas de 1910 y 1920, particularmente asociada con las películas del director D.W. Griffith, incluido su papel principal en la obra fundamental de Griffith El nacimiento de una nación (1915). Sus apariciones en películas de la era sonora fueron esporádicas, pero incluyeron papeles memorables en el controvertido western Duel in the Sun (1946) y el poco convencional thriller Night of the Hunter (1955). Hizo un trabajo considerable en televisión desde principios de la década de 1950 hasta la de 1980, y cerró su carrera interpretando, por primera vez, junto a Bette Davis en la película de 1987 The Whales of August.

El American Film Institute (AFI) nombró a Gish en el puesto 17 entre las estrellas femeninas más importantes de todos los tiempos. Recibió un Premio de la Academia Honorario en 1971 y en 1984 recibió un Premio AFI Life Achievement Award.
