Glenn Close

Glenn Close (born March 19, 1947) is an actress from the United States. Close has received several honors throughout the course of her four-decade career, including two Screen Actors Guild Awards, three Golden Globe Awards, three Primetime Emmy Awards, and three Tony Awards. She has also been nominated for an Academy Award eight times, setting a record for the most nominations in an acting category without winning. She became one of the five most-nominated actresses in Academy history with her seventh nomination in 2021.

It's a travesty that Glenn Close has never won an Oscar, despite seven nominations, but it doesn't diminish her standing as one of Hollywood's best performers. She was a juggernaut in the 1980s, getting five Oscar nods for memorable parts in adult dramas like 1987's "Fatal Attraction" and 1988's "Dangerous Liaisons". She hasn't slowed down since, building her profile with excellent performances in TV dramas like "The Shield" and "Damages", earning three Emmys and 12 nominations along the way.
