Biography: Susan Sarandon
[Top]
Susan Sarandon is an Academy Award winning American actress. Born Susan Abigail Tomalin in New York, New York, she attended The Catholic University of America in 1964, where she met & married fellow student Chris Sarandon, whom she would divorce fifteen years later while still retaining her married name as her stage name. In 1970 she went to a cattle call for the film Joe with Chris and, although he did not get a part, Susan received the major role of the disaffected teen who disappears into the seedy underworld. She did not follow up on the success of that movie, taking roles in lesser films such as Lovin Molly ; it was five more years before she appeared in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, the cult classic. That same year, she also played the female lead in The Great Waldo Pepper, opposite Robert Redford. She was nominated for an Oscar in 1980 for Atlantic City, but was still not a household name until the 1988 film Bull Durham. It was while filming that movie that she met actor Tim Robbins, with whom she established a relationship that continues to this day. Posters Of Alfie
