Bio

Miranda is the second daughter of middle-class parents, and exhibited a talent for acting from an early age.

At an early age, she performed in school plays, having shown a talent and desire to 'turn herself into' other people. She has referred to it as 'an emotional fusion; you think yourself into them'. This mimicry could be of school friends or film stars.

She left school at the age of 17, and originally intended becoming a vet. She became affiliated with the Library Theatre in Manchester in 1979, where she became an assistant stage manager.

She obtained her Equity card, and after several regional productions, first appeared on the London stage (Moving at Queens Theatre) in 1981.

British television roles soon followed, and then film.

Since then, Miranda has moved into the international arena, and has made films in America, France and Spain.

Television work (on both sides of the Atlantic) continues, as does some stage work.
