Jill Clayburgh April 30, 1944 ~ November 5, 2010 was an American actress. She received Academy Award nominations for her roles in An Unmarried Woman and Starting Over.

Jill Clayburgh was born in Manhattan on April 30, 1944, the daughter of Albert, an industrial textile salesman, and Julie Clayburgh. She earned a bachelor's degree in theater from Sarah Lawrence College in 1966.
Ms. Clayburgh, who began her career in films and on Broadway in the late 1960s, was among the first generation of young actresses — including Ellen Burstyn, Carrie Snodgress and Marsha Mason — who regularly portrayed characters sprung from the new feminist ethos: smart, capable and gritty, sometimes neurotic, but no less glamorous for all that.

Ms. Clayburgh made her Broadway debut in 1968 in "The Sudden & Accidental Re-Education of Horse Johnson," a play starring Jack Klugman that ran for five performances. Her other Broadway credits included far more successful shows, among them the Jerry Bock-Sheldon Harnick musical "The Rothschilds" 1970, opposite Hal Linden; the Stephen Schwartz musical "Pippin 1972, opposite John Rubinstein; and a 1984 revival of Noël Coward's "Design for Living" that also starred Frank Langella and Raul Julia.

For nearly 30 years, she has delivered stellar performances in a wide variety of roles. Born into wealth in 1944 in New York City, Jill Clayburgh was educated at the finest schools including the Brearley School and Sarah Lawrence College. It was while at Sarah Lawrence that she decided on a career in acting and joined the famous Charles Street Repetory Theater in Boston. She moved to New York in the late 1960s and had featured roles in a number of Broadway productions including "The Rothschilds" and "Pippin". She began her career in films in 1970 and got her first major role in Portnoy's Complaint 1972 in 1972.

She was known in particular for her starring role in "An Unmarried Woman" 1978, directed by Paul Mazursky. For her performance as Erica, a New Yorker who must right herself after her husband leaves her for another woman, Ms. Clayburgh was nominated for an Academy Award. The best-actress Oscar that year went to Jane Fonda in "Coming Home."
Ms. Clayburgh also received an Oscar nomination for "Starting Over" 1979, directed by Alan J. Pakula. She played Marilyn Holmberg, a teacher who embarks on a relationship with Phil, a newly divorced man played by Burt Reynolds.
Ms. Clayburgh's other films include "Semi-Tough" 1977, opposite Mr. Reynolds; "It's My Turn" 1980, opposite Michael Douglas; "First Monday in October" 1981, opposite Walter Matthau, in which she played the first woman appointed to the United States Supreme Court; and "I'm Dancing as Fast as I Can" 1982, based on the memoir by Barbara Gordon about a driven career woman's addiction to valium.
Her last Broadway appearance, in 2006, was in a revival of "Barefoot in the Park" at the Cort Theater, with Tony Roberts and Amanda Peet.
Her many television credits include guest appearances on "Law & Order," "The Practice" and "Nip/Tuck," and a recurring role on "Ally McBeal" as Ally's mother, Jeannie. Most recently Ms. Clayburgh was a member of the regular cast of "Dirty Sexy Money," broadcast from 2007 to 2009 on ABC.
