Jessica is one of the most prominent actresses in American cinema. She has won two Academy Awards: in 1983 for “Tootsie” and in 1995 for “Blue Sky.” In 1967, she received an art and photography scholarship to the University of Minnesota, where she met photographer Francisco Paco Grande, whom she married in 1971. With Paco, she traveled between the United States and Mexico before moving to Paris. In France, she was discovered by the fashion industry and became an exclusive model. In Hollywood, it was producer Dino De Laurentiis who cast her in the remake of King Kong. The film was a huge box-office hit but failed to win over critics. She went on to appear in other films, but her true breakthrough came in 1981 with The Postman Always Rings Twice. Thanks to its sex and violence scenes, it became a cult classic. Her success continued with Frances (1982) and Sweet Dreams (1985). Despite everything, the actress chose dramatic roles. She divorced Paco in 1981. She later began a relationship with dancer and choreographer Mikhail Baryshnikov, with whom she had a daughter named Alexandra. The romance was short-lived. From 1982 to 2009, she was in a relationship with actor and playwright Sam Shepard, with whom she had two daughters, Hannah and Jane. Today, she is a full-time grandmother, reminiscing about the wonderful moments she experienced in the world of cinema.
