June Squibb, 94, talks FINALLY breaking through with her FIRST EVER lead role in new comedy film Thelma: 'I always loved what I was doing'
It's quite the milestone considering she's 94-years-old and has been acting since 1948, which translates to 76 years in the business, although there were gaps of inactivity over the years.
While she began acting in the late 1940s as a teenager, Squibb didn't make her professional debut until she landed a part in the Broadway production of the musical Gypsy (1959)a after moving from Cleveland to New York City in 1951. More than two decades had passed until she finally made her onscreen debuts, appearing in an episode of the anthology series CBS Schoolbreak Special (1985) for TV and in the Woody Allen romantic comedy Alice (1990) for film. Over the course of the last decade she's appeared in such films as I'll See You In My Dreams (2015), Love the Coopers (2015), Other People (2016), Father Figures (2017) (2017), Blow The Man Down (2019), Palm Springs (2020), Hubie Halloween, Palmer (2021), The Humans (2021), and Family Squares (2022).
