Description:
Daughter of a law professor at Northwestern, she moved with
her family to Los Angeles when he transferred to UCLA. She began acting in school
plays at North Hollywood High, graduated from The Oakwood School and then continued
her stage training at the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco and
the Juilliard School of Dramatic Art in New York. Following a pleasant screen
debut in Robert Redford's Oscar-winning Ordinary People (1980), McGovern gave
a great performance as Evelyn Nesbit in Ragtime (1981) for which she earned
an Academy Award nomination as Best Supporting Actress. She has continued performing
on stage between film assignments rather than concentrate on being a film star.
