My Take

Kerry Fox earned my respect with a single, fearless performance. Born in Wellington in 1966, she broke through playing writer Janet Frame in Jane Campion's An Angel at My Table, a role that won her Best Actress at the New Zealand Film and Television Awards. What I value about her is the willingness to take on demanding, unglamorous parts rather than chase easy stardom. She trained the hard way, schooled at Hutt Valley High before building a screen career that later expanded into directing. To me she embodies the quietly serious New Zealand acting tradition, the kind of performer who trusts material over image.

Overview

Kerry Lauren Fox (born 30 July 1966) is a New Zealand actress. She came to prominence playing author Janet Frame in the movie An Angel at My Table directed by Jane Campion, which gained her a Best Actress Award from the New Zealand Film and Television Awards.
