About Meryl Streep

Meryl Streep is widely regarded as one of the greatest actresses of all time, with a career spanning over five decades on stage and screen. She has won three Academy Awards and received a record 21 nominations, demonstrating extraordinary sustained excellence in her craft. Beyond acting, she is known for her thoughtful approach to artistry, resilience, and speaking truth to power.

Streep believes in the power of empathy — that deeply inhabiting another person's perspective is both an artistic discipline and a human virtue. She champions authenticity, persistence through self-doubt, and the courage to keep showing up despite fear.

"The great gift of human beings is that we have the power of empathy."

"I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I've become arrogant, but simply because I reached a point in my life where I do not want to waste more time with what displeases me or hurts me."
