Emma Watson is an English actress and activist who was perhaps best known for playing the studious young wizard Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films (2001–11), based on the popular book series by J.K. Rowling. The enormous success of that movie franchise rocketed Watson to worldwide fame at a young age—she was 10 years old when the first film came out and 21 when the series concluded. She later used her visibility and renown to become a prominent advocate for feminism and women’s equality.
