Emma Watson
Emma Watson, in full Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson, she was
born on April 15, 1990 in Paris, France. She is a British actress and activist
who was best known for playing the role Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter .
She also garnered attention as a spokesperson for women’s equality.
Watson was born to British parents who divorced when she was
young. She and her brother went to live with their mother in Oxfordshire,
England. While a child, Watson decided she wanted to be an actress. Besides
attending school, she took acting and singing classes. She also appeared in
several school plays.
Watson began acting in earnest in 1999 after she auditioned
for a part in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone (2001). She won the role of
smart and logical Hermione, one of Harry Potter’s best friends. The film was a
box-office hit, and Watson reprised her role in the franchise’s other movies:
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002), Harry Potter and the Prisoner
of Azkaban (2004), Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005), Harry Potter and
the Order of the Phoenix (2007), Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009),
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2010), and Harry Potter and the
Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (2011).
After the Potter films ended, Watson began to look for more
mature roles. Her first major part was in the drama The Perks of Being a
Wallflower (2012), in which she played a high-school senior who becomes friends
with a clinically depressed freshman. She subsequently appeared in the crime
drama The Bling Ring (2013), the historical thriller The Colony (also known as
Colonia; 2015), and the sci-fi thriller The Circle (2017). These films had
limited success at the box-office, but Watson had another blockbuster hit with
the live-action Disney adaptation (2017) of Beauty and the Beast. In 2019 she
appeared as Meg March in Greta Gerwig’s acclaimed Little Women, which was based
on Louisa May Alcott’s classic children’s book.
Meanwhile, in the midst of her acting career, Watson pursued
a college degree. In 2009 she began attending Brown University in Providence,
Rhode Island. She took time off as needed for filming, and she also studied for
a year at the University of Oxford. Watson graduated from Brown in 2014 with a
bachelor’s degree in English literature. That year she was named a UN Women
Goodwill Ambassador. She was an advocate for women’s rights and gender
equality. From 2016 to 2020 Watson ran an online feminist book club, Our Shared
Shelf, to read and discuss books by and about women.
