Marcia Gay Harden
Marcia Gay Harden, born August 14, 1959 in La Jolla (California), was the third of five. She was the daughter of Beverly (Bushfield) she was a homemaker and her father Thad Harold Harden was a soldier. She first developed an interest for theatre during her time with her family in Greece and taking part in plays in Athens. Harden began her university education at American institutions in Europe but returned to the US to complete her study at the University of Texas in 1983 and then earned an MFA at NYU, and, thereafter, embarked on her acting career. Though she appeared in a movie from 1986 in the little-known The Imagemaker (1986), her debut role in the mainstream in a television movie work, was as an edgy femme fatale in"The Imagemaker," the Coen Brothers' cleverly offbeat tribute to the film of the same name, Miller's Crossing (1990). Harden was widely praised by critics for her stunning performance as Verna. Harden continued to work steadily as a support actor acting as Ava Gardner in Sinatra (92) the biopic for television of Frank Sinatra.
