Biography of Edna Gilhooley :
Ellen Burstyn (born December 7, 1932 as Edna Rae Gillooly in Detroit, Michigan) is an Academy Award-winning American actress. She attended one of Detroit’s premier high schools Cass Tech.
Awards and recognition :
Burstyn was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Actress in a Miniseries or Special, for the TV movie The People vs. Jean Harris (1981) and again for another TV movie, Pack of Lies (1987).
In 2006, she was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or Special for Mrs. Harris. Her nomination was notable for a few reasons - because she had appeared as Jean Harris in the 1981 movie, and also because her nomination was for a performance that, in its entirety, consisted of two lines of dialogue and a total of thirty-eight words - which resulted in fourteen seconds of screen time. This is the shortest nominated performance in the history of the Emmy Awards.[wikipedia]
