Biography
American actress whose films include "Urban Cowboy," 1980, "An Officer and a Gentleman," 1982 and "Terms of Endearment," 1983, for which she was nominated as Best Actress.
As a teen, she had a serious accident on New Year's Eve 1973 when she was thrown from a moving truck. Hitting her head, she nearly died from a cerebral hemorrhage. Spending part of her youth in Israel, she had three months service in the Israeli Army. Returning to the U.S., she began her acting apprenticeship with TV roles, guest starring on various shows.
On 3/16/1989, Winger married actor Timothy Hutton, a first marriage for both. They had a son in 1990 but soon separated. She went back to a former beau from 1983-85, Robert Kerrey, who had been Governor of Nebraska and then, a U.S. Senator.
Winger's reputation with directors is difficult as she suffers each role intensely, getting deeply involved and obsessive with every performance. Her red-hot career cooled off. In 1992 she made "Wilder Napalm." and two films the following year, but she remains quite reclusive.
Winger filed a breach of contract suit against the CineFin Corp. film production company for failing to pay her for the movie "Divine Rapture" that failed in July 1995 after just two weeks of shooting.
In 1993 she met actor Arliss Howard and they married in late November 1996, Los Angeles, CA. Winger left the industry to devote her time to their son, born in June 1997.
