Her grandfather, <a href="/people/122/000063930/">Walter Huston</a>, was a stage and screen star who won an Oscar for <i>The Treasure of the Sierra Madre</i>. Her father, <a href="/people/704/000024632/">John Huston</a>, won an Oscar for directing that film, and also directed <i>Prizzi's Honor</i>, where Anjelica won her Academy Award.<p> At 16, she was an extra in the 1967 James Bond spoof <i>Casino Royale</i>. Her first real acting on film was in her father's forgettable <i>A Walk with Love and Death</i>, in 1969. And her first appearance in a typical-Anjelica-Huston role was as "the woman of dark visage" in 1976's <i>Swashbuckler</i>. The essential Huston includes the aforementioned <i>Bastard</i>, <i>Prizzi's Honor</i>, <i>Crimes and Misdemeanors</i>, <i>The Grifters</i>, <i>Addams Family Values</i>, <i>Ever After</i>, and <i>The Dead</i> (her father's last film).<P> Her first film as a director was <i>Bastard out of Carolina</i> with <a href="/people/868/000025793/">Jennifer Jason Leigh</a> and <a href="/people/362/000050212/">Jena Malone</a>, based on Dorothy Allison's chilling novel about child abuse. It was filmed for <a href="/people/642/000022576/">Ted Turner</a>'s TNT in 1996, but Turner blew a gasket and said TNT would not show the movie after he saw a rough cut. The film eventually aired on Showtime.<P> Huston possesses dual citizenship, Irish and American. She has made public statements in support of legalized medical marijuana. Huston has no children, and no regrets about it.<p><b>Father:</b> <a href="/people/704/000024632/">John Huston</a> (actor, director; b. 5-Aug-1906, d. 28-Aug-1987)<br><b>Mother:</b> Enrica Soma
