Liza Minnelli

Directors and Filmmakers

Liza Minnelli is an American actress, singer and dancer, born in Hollywood in 1946 to the singer and actress Judy Garland and the film director Vincente Minnelli. She moved to New York City in 1961 and built a career across musical theater, nightclub and concert performance, recordings, film and television. Her long partnership with the songwriters John Kander and Fred Ebb brought her first Tony Award for Flora the Red Menace and later became central to her screen fame. On film she moved from The Sterile Cuckoo to the role of Sally Bowles in Cabaret, which won her the Academy Award for Best Actress, and she later returned to television in a recurring part on Arrested Development. Her Carnegie Hall and Radio City Music Hall engagements and her tour with Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. are counted among her best known concert work.
