## Bio

Born March 28, 1948, Wiest broke through in the mid-1980s with Footloose and a string of Woody Allen collaborations - The Purple Rose of Cairo, Radio Days, September - before winning her first Academy Award for Hannah and Her Sisters in 1986. She pivoted between Tim Burton's gothic Americana in Edward Scissorhands and The Lost Boys's vampire-town dread, then claimed a second Oscar for Bullets Over Broadway in 1994 and an Emmy nomination for Parenthood the same stretch. A 1997 Emmy for Road to Avonlea and a 2008 win for In Treatment confirmed her range beyond film. She's since moved between prestige drama - Synecdoche, New York, Rabbit Hole, Let Them All Talk - and a three-year run on Law & Order, landing most recently in Hulu's Only Murders in the Building in 2025.
