Geraldine Chaplin


Geraldine Leigh Chaplin is an Americanborn British actress and the daughter of Charlie Chaplin and Oona ONeill.

Geraldine Chaplin was born in Santa Monica, California, the fourth child of filmmaker Charlie Chaplin. She was the first of his eight children with his fourth and last wife, Oona ONeill. Her paternal grandparents were English singers Charles Chaplin, Sr. and Hannah Harriet Pedlingham Hill and her maternal grandparents were Nobel and PulitzerPrizewinning American playwright Eugene ONeill and Englishborn writer Agnes Boulton. When Geraldine was eight years old, the family moved to Switzerland, since her father was a victim of USs anticommunist campaign, where she attended boarding school and became fluent in French and Spanish. In 1967 she began what would become a twelveyear relationship with Carlos Saura, who directed her in several films between 1967 and 1979.
