Born: September 13, 1959 - Seattle, Washington, USA
Born on September 13, 1959, blonde actress Jean Smart was a native of Seattle, Washington, subsequently attending the University of Washington after high school and receiving her Bachelor of Arts in fine arts. Her first professional job was at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival where she performed in "Much Ado About Nothing," among others. During this time she apprenticed around in regional theater for such companies as the Hartford Stage Company, Pittsburgh Public Theatre, Seattle Repertory Theatre, Alaska Repertory Theatre and Alliance Theatre. Her first huge break came with her own starring role in the potent, critically-acclaimed lesbian drama "Last Summer at Bluefish Cove," which won Jean an Off-Broadway Drama Desk nomination in 1980 and the Los Angeles Drama Critics award in 1983 when she repeated her triumph. Jean made her Broadway debut in 1981 playing Marlene Dietrich in "Piaf" and it was the TV taping of "Piaf" that brought Jean to Hollywood. She struggled for a time through a few unsuccessful sitcoms ("Teachers Only" (1982), "Reggie" (1983) and "Maximum Security" (1984)) before hitting pure gold as the feather-brained Charlene Frazier on "Designing Women" (1986). She met future husband and actor Richard Gilliland on the set of the hit show; Gilliland played the boyfriend of co-star Annie Potts' character for a few seasons. Their son Connor was born in 1989. Feeling confined and typecast, Jean left the show in 1991 to branch out and managed to earn renewed acclaim in such mini-movies as Overkill: The Aileen Wuornos Story (1992) (TV) wherein she offered a gripping portrayal of the serial killer more than a decade before Charlize Theron copped an Oscar for her cinematic version, The Yarn Princess (1994) (TV) in which she played a mentally-disabled mom, and a TV remake of The Yearling (1994) (TV) allowed audiences to rediscover Jean's versatility. Into the millennium, she would earn a Tony nomination for her delightfully madcap part in the Broadway farce "The Man Who Came to Dinner" opposite Nathan Lane, and subsequently win consecutive Emmy awards for her appearances on the hit sitcom "Frasier" (1993). Film would never be as profitable for Jean as the smaller screen would, making her debut in Flashpoint (1984). She did, however, receive an Independent Spirit Award nomination for her part in Guinevere (1999). Diagnosed with juvenile diabetes at age 13, Jean has played an active part over the years in public awareness.
