Roger Sigmon. I loved Ms. Bancroft's work. The Graduate, The Turning Point, and The Miracle Worker are my favorite movies she starred in.

I listened to a radio interview one day from her son, Max Brooks. He said that because he was having a hard learning how to read and get educated, his mom, Anne, quit acting for some time so she can stay at home to take care of him. She put her family above fame.

Loved her in The Elephant Man but ADORED her in The Miracle Worker. She and Patty reprised their roles from the stage for the movie. They were brilliant! That movie helped inspire me to be a teacher. 💖

A SUPERB actress, Anne Bancroft's movies are too many to mention; just look at how many have been listed here... and, it's NOT all of them. One left out was the "Jewish Mother" of an unaccepted gay son, played by a young Harvey Fierstein. She was a great human being, which enabled her to be the great actress that she was.
