Summary
- Geena Davis, 69, recently appeared casual while shopping in Miami.
- She won an Oscar for 'The Accidental Tourist' in 1989.
- Davis advocates for gender equality in media and discusses her ADHD.
Geena Davis, the celebrated Oscar winner, was recently seen enjoying a shopping trip in Miami, presenting a casual and notably different appearance from her star-studded past. The 69-year-old actress, who gained significant recognition in the 1980s, has a career marked by iconic roles in films such as 'The Accidental Tourist,' for which she won an Academy Award, and the groundbreaking 'Thelma & Louise.'
Davis's career has evolved significantly, with the actress noting a stark decline in compelling roles after the age of 40. This shift inspired her to establish the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media in 2004, dedicated to promoting greater representation and more substantial roles for women in media, especially for younger audiences.
In addition to her advocacy, Davis has spoken candidly about her experience with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). She shared that learning about her condition helped alleviate feelings of shame and allowed her to better understand herself, embracing motherhood in her 40s with a strong focus on fostering self-esteem in her children.
