Following her earlier successes, MacGraw made notable returns to the screen in films like “Convoy” (1978) and the miniseries “The Winds of War” (1983). However, her focus shifted in the late 1980s when she relocated to Santa Fe, New Mexico. There, she immersed herself in personal development, embracing practices such as yoga, meditation, and becoming a staunch advocate for animal rights.

In 1991, MacGraw chronicled her Hollywood journey and path to self-discovery in her autobiography “Moving Pictures”.

Ali MacGraw’s enduring legacy is a testament to her artistic prowess, resilience, and capacity for reinvention. Her unforgettable performances on screen continue to captivate audiences, while her passionate advocacy for animal welfare and holistic living serves as an inspiration to many.

Today, MacGraw remains an enduring icon of American cinema and a cherished voice for compassion and mindfulness.
