Julie Andrews
Julie Andrews is an English actress and singer, known for her crystalline soprano voice and quintessential roles in mid-century musical films.
Her performances in *Mary Poppins* and *The Sound of Music* defined a generation's image of wholesome femininity.
Later work, including *Victor/Victoria*, showed range beyond the prim governess roles.
She has that Julie Andrews quality—elegant but approachable.
