Biography

American actress and comedienne who was a regular on the "Sonny and Cher Comedy Review," 1974. Her films include "Oh, God!" 1977, "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," 1977 and "Tootsie," 1982, for which she was an Oscar nominee.

The daughter of a character actor and a dancer, she moved naturally into show business. She and contractor John O'Neil, 42, married in 11/27/1993. Within a week of the wedding they finalized the adoption of a baby girl, Molly, but two years later, she filed for divorce on 2/06/1996.

Troubled with degenerative discs with spurs on her neck and spine, she has to contend with severe pain, requiring an intense program of physical therapy. On 10/08/2002 she revealed a secret that she had kept for 19 years - that she had multiple sclerosis. Her illness was misdiagnosed for years before she went on medication for treatment.
