Jamie Lee Curtis celebrates her 58th birthday today. We’ve had quite a bit of content about her here previously—a pair of Movieline (https://lebeauleblog.com/2016/04/26/jamie-lee-curtis-please-refrain-from-sucking/) interviews (https://lebeauleblog.com/2016/04/03/jamie-lee-curtis-controlled-substance/), along with a Comeback Kid (https://lebeauleblog.com/2015/10/17/comeback-kid-jamie-lee-curtis/) article. As many know, she is sort of “Hollywood royalty,” as the daughter of Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh, not to mention being the wife of Christopher Guest (which officially makes her Lady Haden-Guest as he is a for-real baron).
Curtis began her film and television career in the late 1970s. She did guest spots on several TV shows such as Columbo and Charlie’s Angels. Her film debut in John Carpenter’s Halloween began the “scream queen” phase of her career, as she starred in several horror/slasher films in a row, including Halloween II, The Fog, Prom Night and others. But she then began to display a talent for comedy in films like Trading Places (which she won a BAFTA Award for) and, a few years later, A Fish Called Wanda:

Curtis received Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations for playing Wanda Gershwitz, and later won a Golden Globe as Helen Tasker in True Lies. She won another Golden Globe for starring in ABC’s Anything But Love, and recently has been a Golden Globe nominee yet again for Fox’s Scream Queens. She has also authored a number of children’s books in collaboration with illustrator Laura Cornell.
