An appealing actress who has made her biggest impression on the small screen, this stage-trained player often essays fiercely protective matriarchs. While starring on
Guiding Light
, Williams made an unforgettable film debut in the buff in the 1979 drama
Kramer vs. Kramer
. Other movies followed, notably
Poltergeist
, which launched her string of strong mommy roles. But as the '80s wore on, she focused mainly on the tube, appearing in myriad series and TV-movies, usually as a mama, a professional woman or both, and earned multiple Emmy nods in the process. She also branched out into directing and earned an Oscar nod for her 1994 short film
On Hope
. In the '00s well into her fifties and the mother of two, Williams continued her prolific output, with a host of guest spots on popular shows such as
Law & Order: SVU
,
Las Vegas
and
24
.
