Van wie was Robert Graham?

Lionel Robert Graham (Mexico-Stad, 19 augustus 1938 - Santa Monica, 27 december 2008) was een Amerikaans beeldhouwer.

Graham werd geboren in Mexico en had een Mexicaanse vader en een Amerikaanse moeder. Toen hij negen was verhuisde het gezin naar de Verenigde Staten. Hij studeerde van 1961 tot 1963 aan de San José State University en aan het San Francisco Art Institute in Californië. In 1972 stelde hij tentoon in het Museum of Fine Arts in Dallas. Voor de Olympische Spelen in Los Angeles (1984) ontwierp Robert Graham een reliëf op de bijna 10 meter hoge bronzen toren van het "Memorial Coliseum". Het symboliseerde de 40 verschillende culturen van Los Angeles. De massieve bronzen werken van Graham zijn verspreid over de Verenigde Staten, zoals het "Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial" in Washington D.C. en het gedenkbeeld voor Duke Ellington in Central Park in New York.

Robert Graham was sinds 1992 gehuwd met de actrice Anjelica Huston. In 2006 werd hij door gouverneur Arnold Schwarzenegger voor zijn werk opgenomen in de Californische Hall of Fame.

She decided to actively pursue acting in the early 1980s, and subsequently, had her breakthrough with her performance as a mobster moll in Prizzi's Honor (1985), also directed by her father, for which she became the third generation of her family to receive an Academy Award, when she won Best Supporting Actress, joining both John and Walter Huston in this recognition. She achieved further critical and popular recognition for playing a mistress in Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989), a long-vanished wife in Enemies, A Love Story (1989), a con artist in The Grifters (1990), the Grand High Witch in The Witches (1990), Morticia Addams in the Addams Family films (1991–93), and an adventurous writer in Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993).
