# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Foster started as a child model and became a teen idol through Disney films like Freaky Friday, then drew an Oscar nomination at fourteen for Taxi Driver's twelve-year-old prostitute. After Yale, she won Best Actress twice in three years—first for a rape victim in The Accused, then for Clarice Starling in The Silence of the Lambs. Two more nominations followed for Nell and Nyad three decades apart. She founded Egg Pictures in 1992 and directed four features, including Little Man Tate and Money Monster, plus episodes of Black Mirror and House of Cards. In 2024 she won an Emmy and Golden Globe for True Detective: Night Country, closing a loop from child performer to leading actress to filmmaker without stepping off the wire.
