British-born actress Elizabeth Taylor died on Wednesday, March 23 in Los Angeles at the age of 79. Her beauty and glamour were legendary, as were her violet eyes. In addition to her extraordinary acting career (some 50 films), she will be remembered for her many husbands and her fierce advocacy on behalf of those afflicted with HIV/AIDS. These rarely seen photos of Liz at home and with family and pets are an inspiration to document a life.
