Biography

The youngest of the three children of actors Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy, Tandy Cronyn prepared for her own theatrical career at London's Central School of Speech and Drama. Cronyn's first Broadway appearance occurred in 1969, when she joined the cast of the long-running musical Cabaret. She then chalked up some impressive stage credits in such classics as Ibsen's An Enemy of the People, Brecht's Good Woman of Setzuan, Sophocles' Antigone, as well as contemporary dramas like The Killing of Sister George. Tandy Cronyn's earliest film appearance was in the obscure agit-prop comedy Praise Marx and Pass the Ammunition (1970); she has since been seen in such productions as All Night Long (1981), Once Upon a Time in America (1984), and the made-for-TV The Story Lady (1991), in which she co-starred with her mother, Jessica Tandy. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
