[edit] Early life

Dunaway was born Dorothy Faye Dunaway in Bascom, Florida, the daughter of Grace April (née Smith), a housewife, and John MacDowell Dunaway, Jr., a career army non-commissioned officer.[1] She attended the University of Florida,[2] Florida State University,[3] and Boston University, but graduated from the University of Florida in theater. In 1962, Dunaway joined the American National Theater and Academy. Also Faye has a brother that served in WW2 and her brother was a fallen comrade in the European Campaign. Her brother and herself were rumored to be close and she told him everything, even looking up to him. She has also built a house for her parents in Bascom has a road named after herself. [edit] Career

Dunaway appeared on Broadway in 1962 as the daughter of Thomas More in A Man for All Seasons. Her first screen role was in 1967 in The Happening. In 1967, she was in Hurry Sundown, but that same year, she gained the leading female role in Bonnie and Clyde opposite Warren Beatty, which earned her an Oscar nomination. She also starred in 1968 with Steve McQueen in the caper film The Thomas Crown Affair (and had a small role in the 1999 remake with the same title with Pierce Brosnan).

It was in the 1970s that she began to stretch her acting abilities in such films as Three Days of the Condor, Little Big Man, Chinatown, The Three/Four Musketeers, Eyes of Laura Mars, and Network, for which she won the Academy Award for Best Actress as the scheming TV executive Diana Christensen. She worked with such leading men as Dustin Hoffman, Charlton Heston, Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Tommy Lee Jones, Jack Nicholson, and Robert Duvall.

In the 1980s, although her performances did not waver, the parts grew less compelling. Dunaway would later blame Mommie Dearest (1981) for ruining her career as a leading lady. She received a Razzie Award for Worst Actress, and the critics despised the film, although it grossed a moderate $19 million in its first release and was one of the top 30 grossing films of the year. In 1987 she was nominated for Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama for her performance in Barfly with Mickey Rourke. In a later movie, Don Juan DeMarco (1995), Dunaway co-starred with Johnny Depp and Marlon Brando.

Dunaway starred in the 1986 made-for-television movie Beverly Hills Madam opposite Melody Anderson, Donna Dixon, Terry Farrell and Robin Givens. In 1993, Dunaway briefly starred in a sitcom with Robert Urich, "It Had to Be You". Dunaway won an Emmy for a 1994 role as a murderer in "It's All in the Game," an episode of the long-running mystery series Columbo.

In 1996, she toured nationally with the stage play Master Class. The story about opera singer Maria Callas was very powerful and well received. Dunaway bought the rights to the Terrence McNally play for possible film development.

In 2006, Dunaway played a character named Lois O'Neill in the sixth season of the crime drama CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. She served as a judge on the 2005 reality show The Starlet, which sought, American Idol-style, to find the next young actress with the potential to become a major star. In the spring of 2007, the direct-to-DVD movie release of Rain, based on the novel by V. C. Andrews and starring Dunaway, was released. In 2009 Dunaway stars in film The Bait by Polish film director and producer Dariusz Zawiślak. The Bait is a contemporary version of a drama Balladyna by Polish 19th - century poet Juliusz Słowacki.

Dunaway has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 7021 Hollywood Boulevard, which was awarded on October 2, 1996. [edit] Personal life

Dunaway has been married twice, from 1974 to 1979 to Peter Wolf, the lead singer of the rock group The J. Geils Band, and from 1984 to 1987 to Terry O'Neill, a British photographer. She and O'Neill have one child, Liam O'Neill (born 1980). In 2003, despite Dunaway's earlier claims that she had given birth to Liam, Terry revealed that Liam was adopted.[4]

Dunaway is an adult convert to Roman Catholicism.[5] [edit] Filmography Year 	Film 	Role 	Notes 1967 	Hurry Sundown 	Lou McDowell 	Most Promising Newcomer to Leading Film Roles also for Bonnie and Clyde The Happening 	Sandy Bonnie and Clyde 	Bonnie Parker 	Most Promising Newcomer to Leading Film Roles also for Hurry Sundown Nominated — Academy Award for Best Actress Nominated — Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama 1968 	The Thomas Crown Affair 	Vicki Anderson Amanti 	Julia 1969 	The Extraordinary Seaman 	Jennifer Winslow The Arrangement 	Gwen A Place for Lovers 	Julia 1970 	Little Big Man 	Mrs. Louise Pendrake Puzzle of a Downfall Child 	Lou Andreas Sand 	Nominated — Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama 1971 	The Deadly Trap 	Jill Doc 	Katie Elder 1973 	Oklahoma Crude 	Lena Doyle The Three Musketeers 	Milady de Winter 1974 	Chinatown 	Evelyn Cross Mulwray 	Nominated — Academy Award for Best Actress Nominated — BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role Nominated — Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama The Towering Inferno 	Susan Franklin The Four Musketeers 	Milady de Winter 1975 	Three Days of the Condor 	Kathy Hale 	Nominated — Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama 1976 	Network 	Diana Christensen 	Academy Award for Best Actress David di Donatello for Best Foreign Actress Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama Kansas City Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actress Nominated — BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role Voyage of the Damned 	Denise Kreisler 1978 	Eyes of Laura Mars 	Laura Mars 1979 	The Champ 	Annie 1980 	The First Deadly Sin 	Barbara Delaney 1981 	Mommie Dearest 	Joan Crawford 	Razzie Award for Worst Actress (tied with Bo Derek) Evita Peron 	Evita Peron 1983 	The Wicked Lady 	Lady Barbara Skelton 1984 	Ordeal by Innocence 	Rachel Argyle Supergirl 	Selena Ellis Island 	Maud Charteris 	Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Miniseries or Television Film Terror in the Aisles 		archival footage 1985 	Thirteen at Dinner 	Jane Wilkinson 1986 	Raspberry Ripple 	Matron + "M" 1987 	Barfly 	Wanda Wilcox 	Nominated — Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama 1988 	Midnight Crossing 	Helen Barton The Gamble 	Countess Matilda Von Wallenstein 	La Partita Burning Secret 	Mrs. Sonya Tuchman 1989 	Frames from the Edge 	Herself 	documentary On a Moonlit Night 	Mrs. Colbert 	In una notte di chiaro di luna Wait Until Spring, Bandini 	Mrs. Hildegarde 1990 	The Handmaid's Tale 	Serena Joy The Two Jakes 	Evelyn Mulwray 	voice only 1991 	Scorchers 	Thais 1992 	Double Edge 	Faye Milano 	Lahav Hatzui 1993 	Arizona Dream 	Elaine Stalker The Temp 	Charlene Towne 1995 	Unzipped 	Herself – uncredited 	Documentary Don Juan DeMarco 	Marilyn Mickler Drunks 	Becky 1996 	Dunston Checks In 	Mrs. Dubrow Albino Alligator 	Janet Boudreaux The Chamber 	Lee Cayhall Bowen 1997 	In Praise of Older Women 	Condesa The Twilight of the Golds 	Phyllis Gold 	Nominated — CableACE Award for Supporting Actress in a Movie or Miniseries Nominated — Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Miniseries or Television Movie Rebecca 	Mrs. van Hopper 	TV miniseries 1998 	Gia 	Wilhelmina Cooper 	Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress - Series, Miniseries or Television Film Nominated — Satellite Award for Best Supporting Actress – Series, Miniseries or Television Film 1999 	Love Lies Bleeding 	Josephine Butler The Thomas Crown Affair 	The Psychiatrist The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc 	Yolande of Aragon 2000 	The Yards 	Kitty Olchin Stanley's Gig 	Leila Running Mates 	Meg Gable 	Nominated - Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress – Series, Miniseries or Television Film 2001 	Yellow Bird 	Aurora Beavis 	Short subject – also director Festival in Cannes 	Herself 	Cameo 2002 	Mid-Century 	Blue/Mother Changing Hearts 	Betty Miller The Rules of Attraction 	Mrs. Eve Denton Man of Faith 	Mae West 2003 	Blind Horizon 	Ms. K 2004 	Last Goodbye 	Sean Winston El Padrino 	Atty.
