Plowright’s family released a statement saying, “She enjoyed a long and illustrious career across theatre, film and TV over seven decades until blindness made her retire.” They expressed pride in her legacy as a loving and inclusive human being.

A member of a remarkable generation of British actors, Plowright won a Tony Award, two Golden Globes, and received nominations for an Oscar and an Emmy. In 2004, she was made a dame by Queen Elizabeth II.

Throughout her career, Plowright performed in numerous stage productions, from Chekhov’s “The Seagull” to Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of Venice.” She also starred in notable works like Eugene Ionesco’s “The Chairs” and Shaw’s “Major Barbara” and “Saint Joan.”

Tragedy struck with the passing of her husband, Laurence Olivier, in 1989, but Plowright continued to shine in her career, appearing in films such as “Jane Eyre” (1996) and Disney’s live-action “101 Dalmatians” (1996).
