The beautiful actress Madeleine Stowe turns 66 today

Madeleine Stowe was born on August 18, 1958, in Los Angeles, California. Raised in a family with a deep appreciation for the arts, Stowe initially pursued a career in music, studying piano from a young age. However, her interest in acting eventually took precedence, leading her to shift her focus to the world of performance.
Stowe’s early career began on the stage, performing in small theater productions in Los Angeles. Her talent and striking presence soon caught the attention of casting directors, leading to her television debut in the late 1970s. She appeared in various TV shows and movies throughout the early 1980s, gradually building her reputation as a versatile and skilled actress.
Her breakthrough in film came with the 1987 thriller Stakeout, where she starred opposite Richard Dreyfuss. The film’s success brought her widespread recognition, and Stowe quickly became a sought-after actress in Hollywood. Throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, she starred in a series of notable films, including Revenge (1990), Unlawful Entry (1992), and The Last of the Mohicans (1992), where her performance as Cora Munro opposite Daniel Day-Lewis earned her critical acclaim.
Stowe continued to take on diverse roles, demonstrating her ability to portray a wide range of characters. In 1994, she starred in Bad Girls, an all-female Western, and in 1995, she delivered a powerful performance in the sci-fi film 12 Monkeys alongside Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt. These roles solidified her status as a leading actress in Hollywood.
After a brief hiatus from acting to focus on her family, Stowe returned to the screen in the early 2000s. She found renewed success with her role as Victoria Grayson in the ABC television series Revenge (2011-2015). Her portrayal of the wealthy and manipulative matriarch earned her a Golden Globe nomination and introduced her to a new generation of fans.
Madeleine Stowe married actor Brian Benben in 1982, and the couple has one daughter, May Theodora Benben. Stowe and her family have maintained a relatively private life, living on a ranch in Texas, where they have focused on family life and philanthropy.
Stowe was named by People magazine one of the “50 Most Beautiful People in the World” in 1994 and the following year in 1995 by Empire as one of the “100 Sexiest Stars in Film History.”
