Judi Dench, 91, Opens Up About Her Career and Late Husband in Candid New Memoir
The legendary actress's new book, written with longtime friend Brendan O'Hea, revisits everything from Shakespeare to James Bond.
Dame Judi Dench, 91, is looking back on more than six decades on stage and screen in a new memoir, "Is It Too Late to Make a Run for It?", co-written with actor and friend Brendan O'Hea. The book traces her path from Shakespearean stages to the James Bond franchise, where she played M across seven films. In interviews tied to the release, Dench has described writing about her late husband, actor Michael Williams, as one of the hardest parts of the process. Now in her nineties and dealing with declining eyesight, Dench has said she relied heavily on O'Hea and others to help bring the project to the page.
