Julianna Margulies
Nomination:
A former art history enthusiast-turned-actress, Julianna Margulies cut her teeth on the New York theater scene before catapulting to stardom and critical acclaim as the capable, but conflicted nurse Carol Hathaway on the hit medical series, “ER” (NBC, 1994-2009). After leaving “ER” in 2000, Margulies embarked on a series of low-profile features and guest starring roles that kept her away from the spotlight, despite their challenging nature. She finally returned to a leading series role with the short-lived “Canterbury’s Law” (Fox, 2007), followed by "The Good Wife” (CBS, 2009- ), reminding audiences of her exceptional talent and onscreen charisma. For her efforts, she was bestowed with both a SAG and Golden Globe win for Best Lead Actress in a Drama.
