Celia Weston

Biography

Celia Weston is an American character actress who started on the stage, making her Broadway debut in 1979. Born in Spartanburg, South Carolina, she took the surname Weston because another actress was already working as Celia Watson. After a recurring part on the daytime soap opera Ryan's Hope, she spent the early 1980s as Jolene Hunnicutt on the CBS sitcom Alice, a role she later said held back her film career. She earned an Independent Spirit Award nomination for Dead Man Walking (1995) and a Tony Award nomination for the comedy The Last Night of Ballyhoo (1997). Her many supporting film roles include The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999), In the Bedroom (2001), Hulk (2003), How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003) and The Village (2004). On television she has appeared in Memphis Beat and had recurring roles on Modern Family and American Horror Story: Freak Show.
