Barry Humphries is an Australian comedian, film actor, producer and screenwriter. Born February 17, 1934 in Melbourne (Australia). Already in his student years, the young Barry showed a craving for theatrical art, in particular, for the comedy. He loved to transform into various funny characters, thus amusing his friends and university teachers. Having entered the University of Melbourne in 1955, Barry became interested in student theater and began to actively participate in the theatrical life of the university. It was here that the image of the inimitable Edna Everage first appeared, giving the actor worldwide fame. Initially, this image was somewhat modest and represented the usual average Australian provincial woman. But later Humphreys modernized Edna, giving her appearance extravagance and originality, and character - selfishness and narcissism. From now on, Edna is a pink-haired lady who prefers bright outfits and huge glasses in the style of "cat's eye". This is what millions of TV viewers, designers and presenters loved her. Even some fashion designers used Edna Everage's prototype to create their future informal collections.
As an actor, Barry became famous precisely because of the aforementioned image. Films with Barry Humphries' participation were and are mainly of a comedy-parody nature. For example, the films Mrs. Pterodactyl, Spice World and Just for Laughter are designed for a wide audience, and are also intended for viewing even the youngest viewers.
Despite the rather bright success in the world of show business, the actor was not exclusively happy and loyal to one woman. Behind his shoulders, there are more than 3 marriages. His last wife Lizzie Spender is also involved in acting and strongly supports her husband in creative endeavors.
