Meryl Streep (one our 50 Fabulous People of the 1970s) has had an incredible career in the arts, racking up 21 Academy Award nominations and winning three of them. Not only has she been extremely notable in film, but she also has had a wonderful stage experience as well. She received a Tony Award nomination for 27 Wagons Full of Cotton and A Memory of Two Mondays in 1976. She established herself most ironically as a film actress by the ’80s.
Since then, at 71 years old, she continues to dominate movie screens everywhere. Let’s take a look at some of her beautiful photos through the years to celebrate how far she’s come!
