USA (1963 - ). Actriz norteamericana nacida en 1963 en Tulsa, Oklahoma. A stage-trained actress, Jeanne Tripplehorn scored in her feature debut as Dr. Beth Gardner, the lover/psychologist of Michael Douglas, in Paul Verhoeven's BAJOS INSTINTOS (1992). The Oklahoma native trained at Juilliard and made her professional debut in the historical TV movie THE PERFECT TRIBUTE (ABC, 1991), with Jason Robards and Lukas Haas. She also appeared in the critically-acclaimed but short-lived sketch comedy The Ben Stiller Show (Fox, 1992-93), and provided the voice of the operator who speaks to Robert Morse's Truman Capote in the Broadway play Tru, (which was filmed and later broadcast on PBS in 1992). Tripplehorn co-starred with Val Kilmer in the revival of John Ford's 'Tis Pity She's a Whore (1992) at the New York Public Theater, as well as a 1991 production of The Big Funk. On the big screen, Tripplehorn has been making a bigger splash (sometimes literally). After her debut in the popular, controversial BAJOS INSTINTOS (1992), she played the supporting role 'Pastel' in the Gen-X romantic comedy THE NIGHT WE NEVER MET (1993) and Tom Cruise's supportive wife in the Sydney Pollack thriller THE FIRM - FACHADA (1993). She next suffered through the long, agonizing WATERWORLD (1995) shoot in Hawaii, playing Kevin Costner's leading lady in that notorious 1995 aquatic adventure. It was back to dry land with the 1996 romance TIL THERE WAS YOU, with Dylan McDermott. Sharp-eyed fans can also spot Tripplehorn in an unbilled cameo in GENERACION X (1994), the 1994 comedy directed by Ben Stiller, with whom she has been involved since the early 1990s. 1991 THE PERFECT TRIBUTE performer 1993 THE NIGHT WE NEVER MET performer
