Biography:After attending Sarah Lawrence College and the University of Michigan, "Tovah Feldshuh" studied acting with "Uta Hagen" and Jacques LeCoq. Feldshuh made her professional debut at the Tyrone Guthrie Theatre in "Cyrano de Bergerac"; it was in this selfsame play that she made her Broadway bow in 1973. The following year, she was honored with the Theatre World Award for her starring appearance in Yentl. She later worked with the American Shakespeare Festival, starred in such Broadway productions as "Sarava" (1978) and "Lend Me a Tenor" (1989), and toured in her own one-woman show.

Feldshuh inaugurated her film career in 1973 on a less-than-prestigious note with "Scream, Pretty Peggy". Though the quality of her films improved over the next 20 years, she is held in higher esteem for her TV appearances. Feldshuh has been seen as "Katharine Hepburn" in the made-for-TV biopic "The Amazing Howard Hughes"... Full Biography
