Age is more than a number to Ally Sheedy. It’s how she remembers the most significant moments of her life. Nineteen is when she did her “first real movie,” Bad Boys with Sean Penn. The year she got married was 29.

She asks my age at one point during our recent conversation. When I say that I’m in my 20s, Sheedy says, “That makes me so happy.

You’re the same age as my son.” Now that she’s 59 years old and back in the limelight with Single Drunk Female—her first major onscreen performance in more than five years—Sheedy is once again a celebrity (for better or worse).

It’s a moment that she isn’t taking for granted. “I’m so grateful, but also I’m so relieved,” Sheedy tells me. “I just did not know if another role that would resonate this much within me would come again.”

“Again, remember I’m 59. So during my 50s, I just thought, Hmm, I’m really going to miss acting. I love it so much. It’s heartbreaking not to do it more, but I can do this, I can do that. I have other things. I wasn’t expecting this. Then it showed up.” Ally Sheedy Wiki, Biography, Age, Height, Measurements, Husband.

Ally Sheedy Husband

Ally Sheedy married David Lansbury in April of 1992. The couple welcomed a daughter named Rebecca in 1994 and eventually divorced in 2009.

For the past decade, Sheedy has been expanding her operations into education and editing. She’s a professor in the theater department at City College of New York and works under a pen name as a book editor.

Both have given Sheedy “happiness that is genuinely distinct from that which I get from acting.”

After the birth of her son, Beckett, in 1994, it’s always been a slow fade from the spotlight. “I remember thinking, I’m tired of thinking about myself all the time,” Sheedy says.

“I need my life to be about something more than me. Someone else as well? That notion was interrupted by 1998’s High Art, in which she played a drug-addicted photographer—a role that earned her an Independent Spirit Award.

“My favorite movie is High Art,” Sheedy explains. “I adore the writing. I adore the cast. I adore Patricia Clarkson and Radha Mitchell. Maybe it won’t work; it could be a little outdated right now.

But it’s my favorite role, next to Allison from The Breakfast Club and Carol in terms of just how great they were for me as an actor.

Those are the three parts I feel most blessed to have had, solidifying everything that I’ve been doing throughout the decades.”
