Julianne Moore | First TV Show: As the World Turns

Julianne Moore is one of the most celebrated actresses in Hollywood. Her success in film has spanned since the early 90s, and she’s best known for her portrayals of emotionally troubled women in several blockbusters and independent films. Moore has been able to win several accolades, including two Emmy Awards, an Academy Award, and two Golden Globes. Besides acting, she’s also an author, and she has released a couple of publications under her name. In 2020, Moore ranked The New York Times as #11 in its list of the 25 Greatest Actors of the Modern Century.

Before cultivating a widely illustrious career, Julianne Moore first played “Frannie Hughes” in the 80s drama As the World Turns. You could tell that she was bound for greatness as her acting credit in As the World Turns won her a Daytime Emmy! She certainly deserved that Emmy, as Julianne also did double the work by playing Frannie’s identical half-sister at the same time.
