Jessica Lange

The fabulous and beautiful Jessica Lange is only the 13th actress to achieve the Triple Crown of Acting, having won two Oscars, three Primetime Emmy Awards and a Tony Award. She has also been awarded with a Screen Actors Guild Award and five Golden Globes. She also holds the record for the most nominations for the Golden Globe Award for best Actress – Miniseries or TV Film. In 1995 Entertainment Weekly listed her as among the 25 Greatest Actresses of the 1990s. Aside from acting, she is an accomplished photographer, as well as a dedicated humanitarian, being a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nation’s Children’s Fund.

Lange was born and raised in Minnesota, and in 1967 she received a scholarship to study art and photography at the University of Minnesota. She later moved to Paris where she studied mime theatre and joined the Opéra-Comique as a dancer. While sharing an apartment with Grace Jones and Jerry Hall, Lange became a model. And it was while modelling back in New York that she was discovered by Hollywood producer Dino de Laurentiis, who subsequently cast her in his remake of King Kong, for which Lange won the 1976 Golden Globe Award for New Star of the Year. Her stardom rocketed, and she has since appeared in countless films, TV and stage productions, including The Postman Always Rings Twice opposite Jack Nicholson, Tootsie with Dustin Hoffman, Cape Fear with Robert De Niro, A Thousand Acres alongside Michelle Pfeiffer; in FX’s Feud, with Susan Sarandon, as well as in their acclaimed horror anthology series, American Horror Story, and recently starred in Netflix’s comedy-drama series, The Politician.
