Sarah Churchill (actress)

Sarah Millicent Hermione Touchet-Jesson, Baroness Audley (née Spencer-Churchill;[a] 7 October 1914 – 24 September 1982), was an English actress and dancer and a daughter of Winston Churchill.

[citation needed] In 1964 Churchill became romantically involved with African-American emigrated jazz singer and painter, Lobo Nocho, and there were reports that the two might marry.

Aspects of Churchill's wartime service are also described in detail in Women of Intelligence: Winning the Second World War with Air Photos.

American author Christopher Ogden's biography of Pamela Harriman and other sources indicate that during the war she had an affair with (married) US Ambassador John Gilbert Winant, and that it ended badly.

Catherine Grace Katz's book, The daughters of Yalta: The Churchills, Roosevelts, and Harrimans: A Story of Family, Love, and War describes Sarah, Kathleen Harriman and Anna Roosevelt Halsted, playing a key role in the Yalta conference, as they managed their temperamental fathers.

[6] Churchill is best known for her role in the film Royal Wedding (1951) as Anne Ashmond, romantic interest of Fred Astaire as Tom Bowen.

In 1960, she appeared as Lisa Grayson in the play "The Night Life of a Virile Potato" by Gloria Russell at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith, London.

She was arrested for making a scene in the street on a number of occasions and even spent a short spell on remand in Holloway Prison.
