Marisa Tomei received an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in the hit comedy “My Cousin Vinny.” Best known for rich comic performances, Tomei took a dramatic turn with “In the Bedroom,” earning her second Oscar nomination.
Tomei recently shot the films “Charm School” co-starring with John Goodman, Danny DeVito and Robert Carlyle, directed by Randall Miller; “Factotum” with Matt Dillon, directed by Bent Hamer; and “Loverboy,” directed by Kevin Bacon.
Tomei's diverse credits include “Anger Management,” “The Guru,” “Happy Accidents,” “What Women Want,” “Slums of Beverly Hills,” “Welcome to Sarajevo,” “The Perez Family,” “A Brother's Kiss” and “Unhook the Stars,” opposite Gena Rowlands, for which Tomei was honored by her peers with a Screen Actors Guild nomination.
On-stage, Tomei was seen last year on Broadway, opposite Al Pacino and Dianne Wiest, in Oscar Wilde's “Salome” in the title role. Her previous theater credits include Nobel Prize-winning playwright Dario Fo's “We Won't Pay! We Won't Pay!,” Clifford Odets' “Waiting For Lefty” and “Rocket to the Moon,” both directed by Joanne Woodward, among others. Tomei starred this summer in Noel Coward's “Design for Living” at the Williamstown Theater Festival.
Tomei is a member of the Naked Angels Theater Company in New York City.
