Career

Paulson was a series regular on the cult television show American Gothic and the WB series Jack & Jill (1999), playing the character "Elisa Cronkite". In addition, she had a minor role in the HBO series Deadwood, and was a focal character in an episode of the critically acclaimed FX series Nip/Tuck.

Paulson briefly appeared on the NBC series Leap of Faith (2002) as the main character, but the show was short-lived. In 2004, she had a supporting role in the ABC series The D.A., but that show also ended after a few episodes.

Paulson starred in a revival of The Glass Menagerie on Broadway, and has appeared Off-Broadway in Killer Joe, Talking Pictures, and Colder Than Here. Paulson's movie credits include Down with Love, What Women Want, The Other Sister, Levitation, and Serenity.

In the 2006-2007 television season, Paulson co-starred in NBC's Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip playing Harriet Hayes, one of the stars of the show-within-a-show. To date, this is her most notable role, earning her a Golden Globe nomination for best supporting actress in a TV series.

In December 2008, Paulson appeared in the screen adaptation of Will Eisner's comic book The Spirit, playing an updated version of the character Ellen Dolan.

On August 25, 2008, ABC ordered her pilot Cupid to series. It is a remake of the 1998 program which had starred Jeremy Piven and Paula Marshall. In the new version of the series, Paulson stars opposite Bobby Cannavale. Original series creator Rob Thomas is currently overseeing script development. The series debuted in late March 2009 on ABC.¹

Personal life

Paulson was born December 17, 1974, in Tampa, Florida, but was raised in New York City, especially Brooklyn, and Maine.

Paulson dates the actress Cherry Jones. Jones has been accused of indirectly outing Paulson in her acceptance speech after winning a Tony Award in 2005; Jones thanked her by the name of the character that she was currently playing, The Glass Menagerie's "Laura Wingfield".² However, the pair had attended the awards together and kissed right after Jones won, thus making it clear that Paulson was not secretive about the relationship. In 2007, Paulson and Jones declared their love for each other in an interview with VelvetPark at Women's Event 10 for the LGBT Center of NYC.³
