[edit]

After a recurring role on the NBC sitcom Frasier, Huffman landed a leading role in an ABC comedy series Desperate Housewives, co-starring with Marcia Cross, Teri Hatcher, and Eva Longoria.[13] Huffman won an Emmy Award for her work on Desperate Housewives (Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series) in 2005, as well as two 2006 Screen Actors Guild Awards (Best Actress - Comedy Series and part of Best Ensemble - Comedy Series) in 2006 and received several other awards. A report in November 2010 suggested that Huffman, along with co-star Teri Hatcher, would be quitting Desperate Housewives, but ABC denied the claim.[18] The series ended in May 2012, after eight seasons.[19]

In 2005, Huffman starred in the independent drama Transamerica, playing Bree, a pre-operative transgender woman who, on the brink of her transforming surgery, discovered that in her youth she had fathered a son - who is now a troubled teen hustler on the run.[14] Huffman's performance in Transamerica was praised by many critics and garnered her a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress, as well as nominations for Best Actress (Screen Actors Guild) and Best Actress (Academy Awards), and several other awards and nominations. Huffman is now a voting member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.[20]

In 2007, Huffman starred in Garry Marshall's Georgia Rule with Jane Fonda and Lindsay Lohan, and 2008 on independent drama Phoebe in Wonderland. She made a film, Lesster, as a writer, director and actress in 2010.[21]

2013–present: Subsequent career and American Crime

[edit]

Huffman said that after seeing her as Lynette Scavo on Housewives for eight years it was difficult for audiences to think of her as anything else. She said that's why she was eager for a role that's a distinctive departure.[22] After Desperate Housewives finale, Huffman reunited with playwright David Mamet in the comedy play November. The play debuted on September 26 and ended on November 4, 2012.[23] In 2012, she also appeared in the ensemble cast independent movie, Trust Me, opposite Clark Gregg.[24]

On February 15, 2013, Huffman signed on for the lead role of the Fox drama pilot Boomerang, directed by Craig Brewer. The show centers on Margie Hamilton, a spy and master of disguise, who is the matriarch of the Hamilton clan, a "briskly professional assassin who can kill and dispose of a suspected terrorist in the afternoon – then switch to wife and mother mode without a hitch".[25] However, Fox did not pick up Boomerang as a new series.[26]

In 2013, Huffman starred in the independent drama Rudderless,[27] and in the adventure film Big Game opposite Samuel L. Jackson.[28][29] She also starred in another independent drama Stealing Cars,[30] and was cast in the comedy film Zendog.[31] In April 2014 she appeared in the independent film Cake opposite Jennifer Aniston.[32]

Huffman at the 2006 Malibu Triathlon

In 2014, Huffman was cast as the lead in the ABC anthology legal drama pilot American Crime created by John Ridley.[33][34][35] The pilot was picked up to series in May 2014.[36][37][38] On October 2, 2014, it was announced that Huffman would be star and executive producer alongside Carol Mendelsohn in her untitled drama about a special agent (Huffman) who is the fearless leader of a team of young agents on the New York City Joint Terrorism Task Force. The project was developed for ABC, but was not green-lighted for 2015–16 television season.[39] American Crime debuted on ABC in March, 2015 and Huffman received critical acclaim for her performance as an antagonistic character.[40][41][42] Robert Bianco from USA Today said in his review "A triumph for Oscar winner John Ridley, who created, produced and directed American Crime, and a reconfirmation that Felicity Huffman is one of the best actors we have... In no case is that truer than with Huffman's Barb, who is the morally questionable center of the story. Barb is a Lifetime movie heroine: a tough, divorced mother who raised her children alone, and is fighting now to bring her son's murderer to justice. Except this isn't that kind of show, and Barb's battles have not just made her stronger; they've made her hate all the people she's felt she had to fight. Which is why Huffman's gut-wrenching performance is so startling. A bundle of barely concealed fury, Huffman forces us to invest in a woman who thinks her bigotry makes her not just right, but noble."[43]

In 2017, Huffman voiced a parody of herself in two episodes of the Netflix animated series BoJack Horseman. In 2018, Huffman starred in the second season of the Epix comedy-drama Get Shorty.[44]

In 2019, Huffman starred in two Netflix projects: the Ava DuVernay miniseries When They See Us about the famous Central Park jogger case from 1989 in which a jogger was attacked in Central Park in New York City[45] and in the comedy-drama film Otherhood based on the novel Whatever Makes You Happy by William Sutcliffe,[45] She also starred in the drama film Tammy's Always Dying directed by Amy Jo Johnson.[46] which had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2019.[47] It received generally positive reviews from critics, particularly for Huffman's and Phillips' performances.[48][49] It was released through video on demand on May 1, 2020, by Quiver Distribution.

In November 2020, it was reported that Huffman would star in an ABC comedy television series pertaining to minor league baseball.[50] However, the pilot was ultimately not picked up as a series.[51]

In March 2023, Huffman appeared in an episode of The Good Doctor, in which she portrayed distinguished attorney Janet Stewart.[52] Huffman was meant to reprise the role in a spin-off titled The Good Lawyer; however, this spin-off was cancelled due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.[53]

Personal life

[edit]

Huffman dated actor William H. Macy on and off for 15 years[54] before they married on September 6, 1997. They have two daughters, Sophia and Georgia.[13] She has appeared on television, in movies and on stage many times with her husband. The couple each received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on March 7, 2012.[55][56]

In 2005, Huffman revealed that she had suffered from both anorexia and bulimia in her late teens and twenties.[57]

Huffman is the co-author of the self-help book A Practical Handbook for the Boyfriend.[58] On March 1, 2012, Huffman launched What The Flicka, a website dedicated to women and mothers where she was a regular contributor. In March 2019, the website was reportedly deactivated.[59]

Huffman is a supporter of the Democratic Party.[51] In 2016, Huffman voiced support for Hillary Rodham Clinton in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.[60] In 2019, Huffman donated $400 to Kamala Harris's campaign in the 2020 U.S. presidential election.[61]

Felicity Huffman has been a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in the Actors Branch since 2006.[62]

Varsity Blues scandal

[edit]
Main article: Varsity Blues scandal

Huffman was among dozens charged by the U.S. Attorney's Office on March 12, 2019, in a nationwide college entrance exam cheating scandal.[63][64][65] Prosecutors alleged that Huffman's $15,000 donation to the Key Worldwide Foundation, ostensibly a charitable contribution, was in fact payment to someone who posed as Huffman's daughter Sophia to take the SAT, receiving a score that showed significant improvement over Sophia's score on the Preliminary SAT (PSAT).[66] Huffman was arrested at her California home on March 12 by FBI agents and IRS agents and charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services fraud.[67][68] She appeared on March 13 in Los Angeles Federal Court, where federal agents took her passport and the court released her on $250,000 bail.[69] At her court appearance in Boston on April 3, she acknowledged her rights, charges and maximum possible penalties then waived a pretrial hearing, signed conditions of her release and was allowed to leave.[70] On April 8, she agreed to plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud.[71]

Huffman formally pleaded guilty to honest services fraud on May 13 and to federal charges for paying $15,000 to have a proctor correct SAT questions answered incorrectly by her daughter.[72] On September 13, she was sentenced to 14 days in jail and one year of supervised release, fined $30,000 and ordered to do 250 hours of community service.[73][74][75] She reported to the Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin, California on October 15 to begin her sentence.[76] She was released on October 25, two days early, because October 27 fell on a weekend.[77] As of October 2020, when Huffman completed her full sentence, no charges have been filed against her husband and Sophia's father, actor and director William H. Macy.[78]

In a November 2023 interview with KABC-TV, Huffman broke her silence on the Varsity Blues scandal for the first time, saying "It felt like I would be a bad mother if I didn't do it."[79]
