Megan Gallagher(I)
- Actress
Megan Gallagher wanted to act from the time she was five years old. She later
took drama lessons when she was in high school. She moved to New York
to attend the Juilliard and appeared in the Broadway cast of "A Few
Good Men" where she won two theater awards (Theatre World and Outer
Critics Circle Award for outstanding debut) for her Broadway
performance in "A Few Good Men". After graduating from Juilliard with a
bachelor's degree, she began to work with John Houseman's Acting Company and
soon had screen roles in TV movies and miniseries, but was so
discouraged trying to make it in L.A. that she nearly gave up to go to
law school. Then she won the Hill Street Blues (1981) role, which developed from a guest
star to a regular role. The rest is history.
