About Sissy Spacek

Sissy Spacek is an American actress and singer, who has been active in Hollywood for the better part of four decades. Known for her portrayal of strong female characters, she has been nominated for the Oscar six times. She was the leading lady in Hollywood in the 70s and 80s and did some of the greatest roles of the time. She is also a singer par excellence and has been a Grammy nominee on one occasion. With age, Spacek moved away from the fiery roles that she was known for and developed a rather earthly and mothering aura around her.

Although Sissy did some notable parts in films, she devoted more time to television than movies in the latter part of her career. Hers is one of the most distinguished careers in the American entertainment industry; a career that began in the 1970s and is still running quite successfully almost half a century down the line. Through the years, Sissy Spacek remained a much respected and acclaimed performer who dished out memorable roles every time she appeared on the screen.
