Kathryn Harrold Movies
Actress
Kathryn Harrold seems content with merely being one of the most brilliant, experimental actresses on the off-Broadway and "small" movie scene. Trained in her craft by
Sanford Meisner and
Uta Hagen, Harrold began building her theatrical reputation in the mid-1970s while teaching acting classes at NYU and Connecticut College. She made her first film,
Nightwing, in 1979, and has since appeared intermittently in films ranging from the nirvana of
Into the Night (1985) to the nadir of
Yes, Giorgio (1982). She has been a regular on several television series, and in 1980 was cast as
Lauren Bacall in the made-for-TV biopic
Bogie. Long-time televiewers will probably be most familiar with
Kathryn Harrold as Nola Dancy on the NBC daytimer
The Doctors, as Christina LaKatzis on the succes d'estime series I'll Fly Away and as talkshow host
Garry Shandling's ex-wife on cable's
The Larry Sanders Show. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
