Anne Carlisle
Biography
Anne Carlisle, born in the United States, is an American actress, artist, and teacher who helped write Liquid Sky (1982) and took on its two central parts, one female and one male, in that cult new wave production. She later wrote a novel based on the same film. Her other screen credits include a small part as Victoria in Susan Seidelman's Desperately Seeking Susan (1985), the cross dressing prostitute Gwendoline in Crocodile Dundee, and a guest appearance in an episode of Miami Vice.
