My Take
Sarah Steele is the kind of actress I associate with characters that feel lived-in rather than flashy. Her run as Marissa Gold across The Good Wife, The Good Fight, and Elsbeth is impressive because she carried one role through three connected series over more than a decade, which is rare. To me that signals writers and audiences both kept wanting her around. Born in Philadelphia in 1988 and a Columbia University graduate, she reads as someone who approaches the craft thoughtfully. I like performers who can move between stage, television, and film, and her resume suggests exactly that kind of range.
Overview
Sarah Steele is an American actress. She is known for her role as Marissa Gold on the CBS legal drama series The Good Wife (2011–2016) and its CBS All Access spinoff series The Good Fight (2017–2022) and Elsbeth.
