Faye Dunaway is the daughter of a sergeant in the United States Army . Mannheim was one of the family's numerous places of residence . Dunaway initially took advantage of a teaching fellowship at the University of Florida , but graduated in 1962 from the College of Fine Arts at Boston University . She waived a Fulbright scholarship at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and instead went to the Lincoln Center Repertory Theater in New York, where teaching and role assignment went hand in hand. In 1962 she got her first major role as Margaret in A Man For All Seasons by Robert Bolt . Even as a film star, she remained loyal to the theater for a long time.
After her breakthrough in the film Bonnie and Clyde (1967), Dunaway was one of the most famous and sought-after actresses in Hollywood for years .
