My Take
What strikes me about Tara Fitzgerald is how thoroughly she's a stage-rooted actress, even though plenty of people met her through film and television. Winning that New York Drama Desk Award as Ophelia in Hamlet back in 1995 tells me everything: this is someone whose craft was forged in the theatre and then carried across to screens. I also like that she picked up Best Actress at Reims in 1999 for Frenchman's Creek, proving she wasn't a one-medium performer. To me she reads as a serious, low-profile working actor rather than a tabloid figure, and that quiet durability is exactly what I respect most.
