Diane Lane

Diane Colleen Lane (born January 22, 1965)[1][2] is an American actress and producer. Born and raised in New York City, Lane made her screen debut at age 14 in George Roy Hill’s 1979 film A Little Romance.

The two films that could have catapulted her to star status, Streets of Fire[3][4] and The Cotton Club, were both commercial and critical failures, and her career languished as a result.[5] After taking a break, Lane returned to acting to appear in The Big Town and Lady Beware, but did not make another big impression on a sizable audience until 1989’s popular and critically acclaimed TV miniseries Lonesome Dove,[6] for which she was nominated for an Emmy Award.[7] It was not until 1999 that Lane earned further recognition for her role in A Walk on the Moon, and that was followed by her performance alongside George Clooney and Mark Wahlberg in the 2000 blockbuster The Perfect Storm.
