Joan Allen: Daughters
built 633 days ago
"I certainly do get at the end of my rope at times," Allen says. "We all do." But she is happily married with an 11-year-old daughter and enjoys life out of the spotlight in New York. She only braves the Hollywood scene when her daughter wants to see something like Robots and she takes her to the premiere, along with other doting parents like Ethan Hawke and Spike Lee. She goes home often to the small town she grew up in, Rochelle, Illinois, and sponsors a scholarship for a high school senior who wants to study the arts.
