Edie Falco is celebrating her 54th today. After a rather slow first decade of her career, she has emerged as a mainstay of television in the past two decades. She began working in film in the late 1980s, mostly in relatively small parts, although she had prominent roles in the indie crime drama Laws of Gravity and in Abel Ferrera’s The Addiction. She began doing regular television work in the early nineties, with recurring parts on Homicide: Life on the Street and Law & Order.
In 1997, Falco began appearing in the role of Diane Whittlesey on HBO’s Oz, which technically was a recurring role although she appeared in almost all the episodes of seasons 1-3. She then got her big break when she was cast in one of the lead roles in a new HBO series about a mob family.

Falco won three Primetime Emmys and two Golden Globes in the role of Carmela Soprano. She then went on to star as Jackie Peyton on Showtime’s Nurse Jackie, winning a fourth Emmy. She has continued to work periodically in films, usually in smaller projects like John Sayles’ Sunshine State or this year’s Megan Leavey, and she also was a Tony nominee for a 2011 revival of The House of Blue Leaves. This fall she will star in the first season of the anthology series Law & Order True Crime. The first season title is The Menendez Murders (remember them?), and Falco will play attorney Leslie Abramson.
