Headly acted opposite future husband John Malkovich in Sam Shepard's The Curse of the Starving Class before joining the famed Steppenwolf Theater Company, where Malkovich was also a member. Headly is often cast as devoted mothers, wives and friends in upper middle-brow dramatic fare, thoughtful comedies, and the occasional odd film.

On TV, Headly appeared with Robin Williams in an acclaimed Great Performances presentation of Saul Bellow's SEIZE THE DAY (PBS, 1987) and earned an Emmy nod for her work in the Western epic LONESOME DOVE (CBS, 1989). Subsequent credits include the direct-to-video children's drama ORDINARY MAGIC (1994) and, back on the big screen, ¡ME LAS VAS A PAGAR PAPA! (1994), with Macaulay Culkin and Ted Danson.
