Jemma Redgrave

Redgrave began to appear on TV in the late 80s, first for Anglia TV in "A Time to Die." She was first seen by American audiences in "The Real Charlotte" on PBS' Masterpiece Theatre and was Carolyn, friend to the title character in "Diana: Her True Story" (NBC, 1993), the miniseries about the Princess of Wales. Her film roles have been sporadic. Redgrave made her debut as Diana, one of the girls plagued by the "Dream Demon" (1988). Her best-known role to date may be Evie Wilcox, the socially ambitious young wife in the Merchant-Ivory production of "Howards End" (1992). Redgrave has continued to work in British TV including "The Buddha of Suburbia" (briefly shown theatrically in the US in 1993) and in the title role of "Bramwell" (PBS, 1996). In the latter, Redgrave delivered a strong performance as a Victorian woman with ambitions to become a surgeon.
