A 1961 native of Chicago, she vaulted from early roles in Dune and thriller Candyman to The Hot Spot, Third Degree Burn, and The Rainmaker opposite Mat Damon, Firewall with Harrison Ford, Robert Altman’s Prairie Home Companion, and more recently Red Riding Hood. Her other TV credits include CSI: Miami, Frasier, The Practice, and a recurring role the last season of Monk. Madsen has recently formed a production company and aims to create documentaries, the first titled I Know a Woman Like That.
