Audrey Hepburn was one of the most respected names in the Hollywood film industry. She was an actress, a dancer and a humanitarian. In fact, the American Film Institute even went on to call her the third-greatest female screen legend in Golden Age Hollywood. People remember her most for her successful movies like Roman Holidays (1953) and Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961). The former got her an Academy Award, a BAFTA and even a Golden Globe.

However, not many know, but she joined the Dutch resistance when she was merely 14 years old. She used to put on dance performances to raise funds for the fight against the Nazis in World War II. Rumor has it that she even transported secret messages.
