The autobiography of acclaimed actor, model and chanteuse Charlotte Rampling

---

Oscar-nominated Charlotte Rampling most recently appeared in hit ITV drama Broadchurch , the BBC´s London Spy and HBO´s Dexter , and the feature film 45 Years .

Her career has spanned popular entertainment and arthouse cinema, having starred in English, French and Italian films from 1966´s Georgy Girl (opposite Lynn Redgrave), to films with French director Fran‡ois Ozon, including 2003´s Swimming Pool.

Having shied away from biographies and autobiographies ("too personal") Rampling has now written Who I Am (first published in French) a lyrical, and intimate self-portrait via reminiscences. Highly personal, packed with photographs from her personal archive, Rampling recounts her childhood and youth as the daughter of an army officer (who won a gold medal for the 4 x 400 relay in the infamous 1936 Berlin Olympics), and the memories and passions that would inspire her life and later work as an actress.

Written in a style that gives a unique insight into her screen persona, it is an idiosyncratic and beguiling insight of one of the most consistently adventurous and interesting actors.
