Meg Tilly

Meg Tilly is an artist who valued her own terms over Hollywood's momentum. After winning the 1985 Golden Globe and earning an Oscar nomination for Agnes of God, with credits like Psycho II and The Big Chill, she stepped away from the spotlight at the height of her visibility to pursue writing. I respect that quiet act of self-direction enormously. She treats acting and authorship as twin forms of genuine expression rather than a career ladder. Born on Valentine's Day in Long Beach, she carries a romantic streak that fits her, and her refusal to be carried by the current earns my admiration.
