Jessica Phyllis Lange was born on April 20, 1949, in Cloquet, Minnesota. Her early life involved frequent relocations due to her father’s work as a traveling salesman. She received a scholarship to study art at the University of Minnesota but chose a different path, relocating to Paris to study drama and later working as a model. Her acting career began when producer Dino De Laurentiis cast her as the female lead in the 1976 film *King Kong*. Despite initial criticism, her performance earned her the Golden Globe Award for New Star of the Year.
Lange’s career progressed with a small role in Bob Fosse’s *All That Jazz* (1979) and a memorable performance in *The Postman Always Rings Twice* (1981). A turning point occurred in 1982 when she received two Academy Award nominations in the same year, a rare achievement. She won Best Supporting Actress for her role as a soap opera actress in *Tootsie* and earned critical acclaim for portraying Frances Farmer in *Frances*. Her dedication to complex characters led to further Oscar nominations for films like *Country* (1984), *Sweet Dreams* (1985), and *Music Box* (1989). In 1994, she won the Best Actress Academy Award for her performance in *Blue Sky*, portraying a mentally unbalanced wife.
Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, Lange balanced film roles with theater and television projects. She made her Broadway debut as Blanche DuBois in Tennessee Williams’s “A Streetcar Named Desire” in 1992. Her television work includes an Emmy-winning performance in *Grey Gardens* (2009). She gained renewed recognition for her roles in the FX anthology series *American Horror Story* (2011–2014, 2018), earning two more Primetime Emmy Awards. In 2016, she won a Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play for her role in the Broadway revival of Eugene O’Neill’s “Long Day’s Journey into Night,” achieving the Triple Crown of Acting (Oscar, Emmy, and Tony). She has also published five books of photography, showcasing her artistic range.
