Happy Birthday: Ruth Wilson

Ruth Wilson

Born: January 13, 1982 in Ashford, Kent, England, UK

I think I’ve got quite a weird face. It sort of moves a lot. People have always pointed out my distinctive features – my top lip or my eyebrows – even when I was very young. They’d call me ‘ski-jump lip’ and all sorts of stuff; my family as much as anyone else. So I was always aware that I had these features that I couldn’t do much about.

It’s a good time for me, but it’s only recently I’ve become comfortable in my job. At the start, it’s hard having the nerve to call yourself an actor, let alone doing it. I gave myself two years after drama school, and if I didn’t make it, then I’d give it up.
