BIO

The English-born Jayne Atkinson made her Broadway debut in the 1987 revival of All My Sons with Richard Kiley. Credits since then have included the current revival of Blithe Spirit, Our Town with Paul Newman, The Rainmaker with Woody Harrelson, and Ivanov with Kevin Kline. Her two Tony nominations have been for The Rainmaker and the 2003 play Enchanted April. Off-Broadway credits include Henry VIII at the Delacorte Theater, The Skriker, How I Learned to Drive, The Art of Success, and Why We Have a Body. Atkinson is perhaps most widely known for a yearlong gig on the TV series 24. Her many other TV credits include HBO's Recount and recurring roles on The Education of Max Bickford and A Year in the Life, the latter of which she and Kiley appeared in months after their revival of All My Sons closed. Her film appearances include Syriana, The Village, Blank Check, Free Willy, and Free Willy 2.
