Beautiful, dark-haired actress who has finally begun to come into her own. Stowe worked as a volunteer at a Beverly Hills theater and eventually got involved in acting herself, performing in various stage and television productions. She won her first significant parts in made-for-TV movies, including a 1978 rendition of The Deerslayer (in the part of Hetty Hutter) and The Nativity (also 1978), in which she had the lead. Perhaps it was her inexperience that kept her from moving further ahead. She starred in a 1986 feature, Tropical Snow that sat on the shelf for three years before getting desultory release. Stowe finally won a big-screen berth as the leading lady in Stakeout(1987, opposite Richard Dreyfuss), and then appeared in a string of commercial and critical duds: the lame comedy Worth Winning (1989), the highly touted Chinatown sequel, The Two Jakes (1990), the Kevin Costner vehicle Revenge (also 1990), and the pretentious Closet Land (1991). Stowe redeemed herself as Cora in the exhilarating The Last of the Mohicans (1992) and gave a startling performance as a wife who willingly hangs on to her cheating husband in Robert Altman's dark mosaic Short Cuts (1993). In 1994, she played a blind woman who "sees" a murder in Blink a Wild West prostitute in Bad Girls and starred opposite Ed Harris in China Moon (actually completed in 1992). She is married to actor Brian Benben, with whom she worked on TV's "The Gangster Chronicles: An American Story" (1981).
