Walter Huston – Anjelica Huston

The patriarch, Walter Huston, has been a pillar of the family. He was not only a good actor but a kind father and grandfather as well. Huston grew up amazingly out of determination and grit because when he was a young man, he worked in construction while also taking acting lessons part-time. He even maintained several jobs until 1909, even after appearing in a couple of plays, Julius Caesar and The Sign of the Cross.

Huston never got to see his granddaughter, Anjelica Huston, as he passed in 1950, while the latter was born the year after. If he had, he would likely be very proud as she has also received an Academy Awards, just like him and his father, John Huston. Anjelica has had recurring roles in many TV shows and several movies. We just hope that apart from the acting genes, Anjelica also inherited some of her grandfather’s money management skills.
