Saffron Dominique Burrows
Saffron Burrows was born in London, England, on October 21, 1972, to politically activist parents. Her father is an architect and a teacher, and her mother, Susie, is a teacher and feminist. Both her parents are socialist-feminists, and so Saffron earned her childhood pocket money by selling the Socialist Worker. Furthermore, she attended marches and rallies after school and allegedly even shared her home with miners on strike.

At the age of 15, she was discovered in Covent Garden by the same scout who discovered More href="http://www.tv.com/naomi-campbell/person/33845/summary.html">Naomi Campbell. After this, she started a successful career in modeling, working in London and Paris. When she made her first film at the age of 17, she decided to focus on acting and to leave her modeling career behind.

Saffron is romantically linked to actress Fiona Shaw. In the Independent on Sunday [UK] 2006 Pink List - a list of the most influential gay men and women - she came no. 90, a new entry.

    After visiting askmen.com I found this woman is doing pretty well for herself. I find her similar to Heidi Klum, but Saffron is a Brit and not German. I loved Troy, but she seemed fleeting (very brief scenes). Deep Blue Sea was apparently big for her, but I barely remember her. I did enjoy her in Reign Over Me. She is a very believable actress. I don't recall hearing an accent. Seeing her filmography, she has done over two dozen films! Impressive.
