Barbara Hershey, also known as Barbara Seagull, is an American actress. In a career spanning nearly 50 years, she has played a variety of roles on television and in cinema, in several genres including westerns and comedies. She began acting at age 17 in 1965, but did not achieve much critical acclaim until the latter half of the 1980s. By that time, the Chicago Tribune referred to her as one of America's finest actresses. Hershey was awarded an Emmy and a Golden Globe for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries/TV Film for her role in A Killing in a Small Town 1990. She has been nominated for two more Golden Globes: in 1989 for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Mary Magdalene in Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ, and for her role in Jane Campion's Portrait of a Lady 1996. She also featured in Woody Allen's critically acclaimed Hannah and Her Sisters 1986, for which she was nominated for a British Academy Award, Garry Marshall's melodrama Beaches 1988 and she earned a second British Academy Award nomination for Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan 2010.
