My Hollywood Story

• It’s Marlee Matlin… she landed a Seinfeld role because Larry David saw her at the gym with Brad Pitt!

  How did a Morton Grove, IL teen - who’d become deaf at 18 months old - go on to become the youngest-ever Best Actress winner and forever change the face of disability? Marlee Matlin and her longtime ASL interpreter Jack Jason join “My Hollywood Story” for a moving - and funny - chat about her unprecedented Hollywood journey. Listen in as Marlee shares the joy (and pain) of her 1987 Oscar win for Children of a Lesser God; how she landed on iconic roles on Seinfeld, The West Wing and The L Word; the full-circle moment of Apple’s Oscar-winning CODA; and why it was a imperative that a deaf director - in this case, Shoshanna Stern - tell her story in the documentary Marlee Matlin: Not Alone Anymore.    MY HOLLYWOOD STORY LINKS: Instagram: @myhollywoodstory YouTube Website SoHo House West Hollywood Thoughts?
