She is the only actress of her generation to have been directed by four National Artists for film Awardees, Gerardo de Leon, Lamberto Avellana, Lino Brocka, and Ishmael Bernal. As an actress, she is regarded as one of the best in the business because of the quality movies, television shows and stage plays that she appeared in. She was named by YES!
