Louisa Jacobson

Louisa Jacobson is a fascinating case of inherited talent and earned credentials. The youngest daughter of Meryl Streep, she could easily have coasted, but instead she got an MFA from the Yale School of Drama before breaking out as a lead in HBO's The Gilded Age. I respect that she did the unglamorous training rather than relying on the surname, and choosing to go by Jacobson hints at a desire to be judged on her own terms. Watching her carry a period drama at that level, I sense someone serious about the craft. To me she's proof that lineage opens the door, but the work keeps you in the room.
