Jill Clayburgh

Highest Rated: 89% An Unmarried Woman (1978)

Lowest Rated: 0% Gable and Lombard (1976)

Birthday: Apr 30, 1944

Birthplace: New York, New York, USA

Twice nominated for an Oscar, actress Jill Clayburgh personified the joys and pitfalls of the newly liberated woman of the 1970s in films like "An Unmarried Woman" (1978), "Starting Over" (1979) and "I'm Dancing As Fast as I Can" (1982). Stage-trained and equally adept at high comedy, as seen by her turns in "Silver Streak" (1976) and "Semi-Tough" (1977), Clayburgh's forte was intense, personal drama, to which she brought uncommon grace and grit. She took a hiatus from features in the 1980s but returned to television and stage in the 1990s and 2000s, most notably as the brittle matriarch of the wealthy Darling family on "Dirty Sexy Money" (ABC, 2007-09). Her death in 2010 robbed the acting world of one of its most versatile performers.
