Biography |
Michelle Johnson (born September 8, 1965 in Anchorage,
Alaska) is an American actress.
Johnson attended high school in Phoenix, Arizona, and after
graduating at the age of 17 she was preparing to move to New
York to pursue a modeling career. Director Stanley Donen saw
her photo in a magazine and signed her to appear as Michael
Caine's love interest in the romantic comedy film Blame It
on Rio. Controversially, she performed several nude and
full-frontal scenes though she was seventeen at the time of
filming; her parents (a pediatrician and nurse) successfully
petitioned a judge for permission to do so on the grounds it
would be good for her career. Although the film was a
commercial success, Michelle was nominated for a Golden
Raspberry ("Razzie") Award as Worst New Star of 1984.
Since then she has enjoyed a modest career as a supporting
actress in television (including a recurring role on The
Love Boat), movies, including roles in Far And Away, Gung
Ho, Death Becomes Her, The Glimmer Man, and Mickey.
From 1999 to 2002 she was married to Major League Baseball
player Matt Williams, and she was sometimes credited as
"Michelle Williams" during that period. |
