Leelee Sobieski

Leelee Sobieski you may not remember by name, but you could probably recall seeing her in films such as Never Been Kissed alongside Drew Barrymore, Deep Impact, Joy Ride, Eyes Wide Shut, and The Glass House. She became a star while she was still a teenager and even got Golden Globe and Emmy nominations for the TV projects Joan of Arc and Uprising.

She decided to quit acting in 2012, stating in a Vogue interview that her marriage and children came first, leaving almost no time for working in show business. Aside for her family responsibilities, she mentioned that she did want to be physical on-screen with co-stars since it’s like “walking through fire.” Nowadays, the former child-star has pursued a career in art. She has had exhibits of her work displayed in London, Mexico, and Paris had a solo gallery debut at the Journal Gallery in New York in 2018.
