a.k.a Margaret Tilly
Meg Tilly has always been close-mouthed about the date and place of her
birth; the above-listed information was gleaned from several reliable
sources, chief among them the 1996 edition of Who's Who. Raised in
British Columbia, Tilly aspired to be a dancer, but a serious back
injury put an end to this dream. Even so, she made her first film
appearance in a bit as an auditioning dancer in Fame
(1980). For the next few years, she alternated between worthwhile
endeavors like Tex
(1982) and bill-paying potboilers like Psycho III (1983). As
Chloe, the very young girlfriend of thirtysomething suicide victim Kevin
Costner in The
Big Chill, Tilly shrivelled the hearts of the audience with her
poignant observation "I don't know very many happy people." In
1985, she earned an Oscar nomination for her portrayal of Sister Agnes,
a young nun accused of murdering her newborn baby, in Agnes
of God. By the early 1990s, her screen appearances became
increasingly, frustratingly rare; we'd like to tell you what she did
with her spare time, but she remains as inscrutable as Garbo on the
subject of her private life. We do know, however, that in 1994 Tilly
wrote a slim volume titled Singing Songs, and that same year
played a small recurring role on the prime-time TV soap opera Winnetka
Road. Meg Tilly is the older sister of actress Jennifer
Tilly. Hal Erickson |
