Like many struggling actors, Liotta began his career on a soap opera, Another World, where acting sometimes takes a backburner to dashing good looks. After several TV stints, he made his rather modest feature film debut with The Lonely Lady (1983). He never permanently left working in TV, but slowly, over the years, has turned more and more to the big screen, where some of his early efforts made a big splash: Something Wild (1986), Dominick and Eugene (1988) and most famously, Field of Dreams (1989), the major Kevin Costner blockbuster, where Liotta played the man himself: legendary baseball player Shoeless Joe Jackson.
