Anne Shirley--grrrrrrrrrr

She was so striking looking with that “dead English woman” skin and red hair that I’m surprised she never became a much bigger star. According to her wiki she lives in both Toronto and L.A. so apparently she and/or her life-partner (male) are doing pretty well financially, so maybe she didn’t want to be bigger and wanted to be a stay-at-home mom, because I think that with the right agent and some drive she’d have been at least as big as a Kate Winslet or Gwyneth Paltrow.

I agree completely (what you don’t mention is that besides her looks, she’s a marvelous actress). I think she prefers stage acting, though, which may be why she appears to be ‘off the grid’. I’ve seen her in L&O, and IIRC more recently she was in a CBC serial, but generally I think she just digs trodding the boards.

I saw her in A Doll’s House at the Guthrie Theatre maybe 15 years ago…Megan Follows that is…
