Irene Worth Facts
She was awarded the 1975 Joseph Jefferson Award for Best Guest Artist for her performance in "Sweet Bird of Youth" at the Academy Festival Theatre in Chicago, Illinois.

Her parents, Agnes Thiessen and Henry Abrams, were educators. Her grandparents, who were Mennonites, had settled with others in the nearby Jansen area of Nebraska during the late 19th century.

She made her Broadway debut with "The Two Mrs Carrolls" in 1943, which starred the legendary Elisabeth Bergner. It was Bergner and her film director husband Paul Czinner who persuaded Irene that London was the center of the English-speaking theatre. She moved there and immediately trained at the Old Vic in 1944.
