About Angelica Page

Born 1964. Angelica Page is an American actor, stage actor, television actor, film actor and film director.

Angelica Page (née Angelica Torn; February 17, 1964) is an American actress, director, producer and screenwriter. She is the only daughter of the actors Rip Torn and Geraldine Page. Credited as Angelica Torn in her early career, she legally and professionally changed her name to Angelica Page in September 2011.

Page began her career in the 1993 Broadway revival of Anna Christie, and made her feature film debut in Nobody's Fool (1994). In 1998, she starred in a Broadway production of Side Man, which earned her a Helen Hayes Award for Best Actress. She subsequently appeared in the films The Sixth Sense (1999), and the political drama The Contender (2000).

She continued to appear Off-Broadway throughout the 2000s, returning to Broadway with a supporting part in a 2012 revival of The Best Man. In 2015, she starred as her mother, Geraldine Page, in the touring stage production Turning Page, a biographical play which she also wrote. Additional film credits include Michael Imperioli's The Hungry Ghosts (2009), and the thriller Never Here (2017).

Early life Page was born Angelica Torn on February 17, 1964, to actors Rip Torn and Geraldine Page. She was raised in New York City, and has noted that her parents' marriage was turbulent and marked by frequent fighting.

After her mother's death in 1987, Page began exploring acting as a career option, as it had been her mother's "dying wish". Page studied acting at the William Esper Studio and HB Studio. The following year, she had a supporting role as Patty opposite John Travolta in the thriller Domestic Disturbance (2001). This followed closely after being honored with the New York People's Choice Award in the Best Supporting Actress category (1999) for her portrayal of Patsy, a role she originated for the same production.

Nominated for her second Helen Hayes Award (Best Actress 2010) for her portrayal of Ivy Weston in the Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning August: Osage County (Broadway and National Tour), her performance was heralded as "revelatory" by the Chicago Tribune. On television, she appeared as Julia Brinn in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (2005); other television credits include Law & Order: Criminal Intent, The Sopranos, 100 Centre Street, and As the World Turns. In 2009, she had a supporting role in the Michael Imperioli-directed drama The Hungry Ghosts.

In 2015, Page developed the one-woman show Turning Page, a biographical play in which she portrayed her mother.

Personal life Page married Keith William Burkhardt in 1984, and with him gave birth to a son, Elijah, and a daughter named Tana. The couple divorced in 1992.

She subsequently married actor Tim Williams in 1998 after the two had met while performing in a 1996 stage production titled Strangers in the Land of Canaan, directed by her father. The marriage ended in divorce in 2001.

She married television creator Dmitry Lipkin (FX, HBO) in 2017 in a private ceremony at Soniat House in New Orleans.

She has commented that she had a loving yet combative relationship with her father, stating: "He's a worthy adversary. He's a very strong personality. He's an amazing person, an amazing father, but sometimes there are certain things we don't see eye to eye on. I call him on it and we fight, just like anybody else."
