During her career, she won a Golden Globe for her performance as Anna Leonowens in the motion picture ''The King and I'' (1956) and the Sarah Siddons Award for her performance as "Laura Reynolds" in the play ''Tea and Sympathy'' (a role she originated on Broadway). She was also a three-time winner of the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actress. Kerr was nominated six times for the Academy Award for Best Actress, more than any other actress, but never won. In 1994, however, having already received honorary awards from the Cannes Film Festival and BAFTA, she received an Academy Honorary Award with a citation recognising her as "an artist of impeccable grace and beauty, a dedicated actress whose motion picture career has always stood for perfection, discipline and elegance". As well as ''The King and I'', her films include ''An Affair to Remember''; ''From Here to Eternity''; ''Quo Vadis''; ''The Innocents''; ''Black Narcissus''; ''Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison''; ''King Solomon's Mines''; ''The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp''; ''The Sundowners'' and ''Separate Tables''. == Early life == Deborah Jane Kerr-Trimmer was born in a private nursing home (hospital) in Glasgow,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Deborah Kerr profile )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Deborah Kerr and Helensburgh )〕 the only daughter of Kathleen Rose (née Smale) and Capt. Arthur Charles Kerr-Trimmer, a World War I veteran who lost a leg at the Battle of the Somme and later became a naval architect and civil engineer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Deborah Kerr biography (1921–2007) )〕 She spent the first three years of her life in the nearby town of Helensburgh, where her parents lived with Deborah's grandparents in a house on West King Street. Kerr had a younger brother, Edmund ("Teddy"), who became a journalist. He was killed in a road rage incident in 2004. Kerr was educated at the independent Northumberland House School, Henleaze, and at Rossholme School, Weston-super-Mare. Kerr originally trained as a ballet dancer, first appearing on stage at Sadler's Wells in 1938. After changing careers, she soon found success as an actress. Her first acting teacher was her aunt, Phyllis Smale, who ran the Hicks-Smale Drama School in Bristol.〔 She adopted the name Deborah Kerr on becoming a film actress ("Kerr" was a family name going back to the maternal grandmother of her grandfather Arthur Kerr-Trimmer).〔Braun, Eric.
