Has Daniel not identified as Irish?

If not, or if he has changed his mind, that's fine, but so often many Irish people or things are claimed as being British; an age-old story. 2A02:8084:21E0:FB00:503F:A572:871D:9441 (talk) 00:21, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am Victoria Belfrage, Daniel Day-Lewis's agent. I need you to edit the following ASAP please:

FIRST EDIT Under the 'Early life and education' section, in the second paragraph, you need to delete the second half of it. Please delete the following, it's incorrect: "Day-Lewis had to deal with tough South London children. At this school, he was bullied for being both Jewish and "posh".[20][21] He mastered the local accent and mannerisms, and credits that as being his first convincing performance.[21][22] Later in life, he has been known to speak of himself as a disorderly character in his younger years, often in trouble for shoplifting and other petty crimes.[22][23]"

SECOND EDIT Under the 'Personal life' section, in the fourth paragraph, after the first sentence ends ' ...die-hard agnostic'. And before the second sentence begins 'In 2012, he donated....' we will need to have you insert the following:

"In 2011, Daniel Day-Lewis was inducted into the American Academy of Arts & Sciences. In 2012, he received an Honorary Degree from University College, Dublin. In 2013, he received an Honorary Degree from The Juilliard School. In 2015, Day-Lewis received an Honorary Doctorate from Goldsmiths, University of London. And in 2020, he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from Birmingham City University." VivVic17* (talk) 15:42, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
