The Greatest Film Actor of Her Time — and Miranda Priestly
Meryl Streep's biography opens with the strongest critical billing in this guide: an Academy Award winner widely regarded as one of the greatest film actors of all time. The record behind it runs from her professional stage debut in The Playboy of Seville in 1971 and a 1976 Tony Award nomination, through her screen debut in the 1977 television film The Deadliest Season and film debut in Julia the same year, an Emmy Award in 1978 for the miniseries Holocaust and her first Academy Award nomination for The Deer Hunter. She won Best Supporting Actress for Kramer vs. Kramer (1979) and Best Actress for Sophie's Choice (1982) and The Iron Lady (2011), making her one of only a few actors to have won three or more competitive Academy Awards for acting.
For a fashion guide, one nominated role outweighs the rest: The Devil Wears Prada in 2006, where her fashion magazine editor became the definitive screen portrait of fashion-world authority — a performance whose wardrobe of immaculate tailoring and silver hair is still the reference point for power dressing in popular culture. The full nominated list shows the range around it: The French Lieutenant's Woman, Silkwood, Out of Africa, Ironweed, A Cry in the Dark, Postcards From the Edge, The Bridges of Madison County, One True Thing, Music of the Heart, Adaptation, Doubt, Julie & Julia, August: Osage County and Into the Woods. She returned to the stage in The Public Theater's 2002 revival of The Seagull, won a second Emmy in 2004 for the HBO miniseries Angels in America, and starred in the Public Theater's 2006 production of Mother Courage and Her Children. Her chameleonic approach to roles — transformation into the characters she plays, and perfection of accents — means each of those films dressed her differently by design.
