Madeleine Stowe - Fact Sheet

Profession: Actress

A tall, exotic brunette beauty, Madeleine Stowe spent the better part of a decade and a half in sometime thankless supporting roles before finally making her mark as the frontierswoman who falls for Daniel Day-Lewis in "The Last of the Mohicans" (1992). The native California has referred to her childhood as troubled, partly because her father suffered the debilitating effects of multiple sclerosis. Stowe, the oldest of three, found an outlet for her frustrations in the piano and from age 10, she trained with noted teacher Sergei Tarnowsky. At his death in 1976, however, she abandoned music and enrolled at USC as a journalism and film major. Bored, she frequently cut classes to volunteer at a Beverly Hills theater where she was spotted by Richard Dreyfuss' agent. In order to gain employment, she fabricated a resume complete with play titles, landing her first professional assignment on an episode of the ABC series "Baretta".
