Trained
in singing and ballet, Sarah was cast in the Broadway
production of The Innocents, which prompted her
family to relocate to New Jersey. Already a professional
performer (she studied at the American Ballet School
and the Professional Children's School), Sarah was
cast in The Sound of Music (along with four of her
siblings), and landed the lead in the Broadway run
of Annie. After a year as the free-spirited orphan,
Sarah attended Dwight Morrow High School, while
continuing to add more credits to her acting resume.
She landed a role in the made-for-TV movie My Body,
My Child, before being cast as one of the lead roles
in the 1982 sitcom Square Pegs, as high-schooler
Patty Green. She did many projects in the eighties
and the ninties but true success came in 1996. 1996
was a film intensive year with roles in The First
Wives' Clubs, If Lucy Fell, Extreme Measures, and
Mars Attacks!
All the
while making a name for herself in film, Sarah was
gaining respect as a theater actress, with her lead
role as a dog (hard to imagine, but true) in the
off-Broadway Sylvia, and her Broadway roles in How
to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying (starring
her present husband, Matthew Broderick), and the
Tony-Award nominated Once Upon a Mattress. But Sarah's
star has shot up since her portrayal of Manhattan
sex-columnist Carrie Bradshaw in the HBO series
Sex and the City. Sarah has also been happily married
to fellow actor Matthew Broderick for quite a while
now. She has had her share of lovers though, including
Robert Downey Jr. (who she also lived with), and
the late John F. Kennedy Jr. When not serving as
lead actress and oft-producer of Sex and the City,
Sarah is a member of Hollywood's Women's Political
Committee, and is UNICEF's representative for the
Performing Arts |
