Mary-Louise Parker was born in Fort Jackson, South Carolina on August 2, 1964, the youngest of several children. Her father was a judge and officer in the military, and the family of "army brats" grew up on military bases around the United States. Parker's interest in the arts began during high school, and she went on to major in acting at the North Carolina School of the Arts. Following graduation, she moved to New York City in the mid-'80s to pursue a career in theater.
Parker initially found work off-Broadway, and also had a short stint on ABC's daytime soap, Ryan's Hope. In 1988, she made her TV movie debut in the CBS World War II drama Too Young the Hero, quickly followed by her feature film debut as an abused girlfriend in Signs of Life (1989). |
