Shohreh Aghdashloo

58 today

The Iranian born actress (and political activist) managed a first for her country on receiving an Oscar nomination for the largly forgotten House of Sand and Fog in 2003. Since then whilst she has been on the peripery of stardom there still hasn't been a major breakthrough, although her performance in last years The Stoning of Sister M received some very good notices.
