Celebrity Caricatures
Looking for a who’s who of celebrities, a rather silly proposition when you think about it given that celebrities have a shelf life of less than five years, none the less, in our indefatigable search for interesting who’s whos, we uncovered a small blog of celebrities rendered as caricatures accompanied by short biographies. It’s some amusing material.
Angelica Houston’s strong facial features lend themselves quite well to caricature, and if you ponder the matter, so does her rich and dramatic life, a brief summary of which accompanies the rendering.

Anjelica was raised mainly in Ireland and England. She attended Kylemore Abbey, a prestigious all-girl boarding school in Connemara, Ireland and also Holland Park School. Two of the first movies she appeared in, Sinful Davey (1969) and A Walk with Love and Death (1969), were directed by her father even though he did not want her to be an actress. She also starred in The Dead (1987), which was her father’s last film. She appeared in few films in the 1970s, choosing to try fashion modeling instead.
Huston has received five Emmy Award nominations for her television work over the years. She won a Golden Globe Award for Supporting Actress in a TV Program for Iron Jawed Angels. It was her first win, after eight nominations.

Huston lived with Jack Nicholson from 1973 to 1989. She married sculptor Robert Graham Jr. in 1992, and resides in an unusual dwelling in Venice, Los Angeles, California. She refused to move to the bohemian area unless Graham built them a fortress in which to live. The result was a giant, windowless structure behind an opaque 40-foot fence.”
