Lara Flynn Boyle Biography
Born: March 24, 1970
Actress Lara Flynn Boyle has David_Lynch to thank for becoming so famous at such a young age. She was barely 20 when she made her series-TV bow on Twin_Peaks in the role of Donna Hayward, best friend of the ill-fated Laura Palmer. After the debut of Twin_Peaks in 1990, Boyle did steady work in both films and television. Some of her more notable ventures included John_Dahl's Red_Rock_West (1993), a neo-noir in which she played a scheming femme fatale; Threesome (1994), which cast her as a college student whose unique boarding situation provides the basis for oodles of hormonal adventures with her two male roommates; Afterglow (1997), a romantic drama in which Boyle starred as an unhappy wife; and Todd_Solondz's Happiness (1998), a very, very black comedy that cast the actress as an irredeemably bitchy celebrity writer. On television, Boyle nabbed one of her most prominent roles to date when she was cast as a lawyer in the acclaimed series The_Practice in 1997. Hal Erickson, Rovi
