biography:
Stockard Channing, née Susan Antonia Williams Stockard, née le 13 février 1944 à New York, est une actrice américaine.

Elle naît à New York de Lester Napier Stockard et Mary Alice English. Élève de l'école The Madeira School, à McLean en Virginie (États-Unis), elle obtient son diplôme en 1965 au Radcliffe College où elle avait étudié l'histoire et la littérature. Elle décida alors de s'orienter vers la carrière d'actrice, commençant dans le théâtre à Boston, puis à New York et Los Angeles (Californie).

Elle fit ses débuts devant la caméra dans la série télévisée 1, rue Sésame. Après quelques brèves apparitions dans L'Hôpital (1971) et Up the Sandbox (1972), elle joua son premier rôle important dans le film pour la télévision The Girl Most Likely To... (1973). En 1975, elle jouait aux côtés de stars comme Warren Beatty et Jack Nicholson dans La Bonne Fortune de Mike Nichols. En 1978, à 34 ans, elle joue le rôle de l'adolescente Betty Rizzo dans Grease, ou encore la secrétaire déterminée mais sans prétention de Peter Falk dans Le Privé de ces dames (The Cheap Detective) du scénariste Neil Simon. À la suite de ces succès, la chaîne CBS lui offrit le rôle central dans deux sitcoms, Stockard Channing in Just Friends (1979) et The Stockard Channing Show (1980).

Dans les années 1980 et 1990, elle continue de travailler pour la télévision et le cinéma (notamment dans La Brûlure aux côtés de Meryl Streep et de Jack Nicholson). Elle retourne aussi sur les planches, remportant le Tony Award de 1985 pour A Day in the Death of Joe Egg de Peter Nichols. En 1990, elle joue une blatte géante dans Meet the Applegates de Michael Lehmann.

Solide second rôle durant les années 1990, on la voit dans Lunes de fiel, Six degrés de séparation, Smoke, Extravagances, Personnel et confidentiel, Le Club des ex, L'Heure magique (Twilight), Lulu on the Bridge et Les Ensorceleuses. À la fin de cette décennie, elle prête sa voix à Barbara Gordon dans la série télévisée d'animation Batman, la relève, jusqu'à son remplacement par Angie Harmon (New York, police judiciaire) en 2000.

En 1999, elle joue la première dame des États-Unis Abby Bartlet dans la série À la Maison-Blanche. Apparaissant en guest star dans les deux premières saisons, elle s'entendit si bien avec Martin Sheen — Josiah Bartlet, son époux-président dans la série — qu'elle devint l'un des membres permanents de la distribution. Dans la septième et dernière saison, (2005-2006), ses participations diminuent du fait de ses autres engagements sur CBS, en particulier dans la série comique Out of Practice (sur une famille de médecins), avec Henry Winkler et Paula Marshall. Cependant, elle apparaît dans les derniers épisodes de À la Maison Blanche en avril et mai 2006, tandis que Out of Practice n'aura duré qu'une saison.

Au cinéma, entre 2000 et 2005, on la voit notamment dans les films Où le cœur nous mène, 7 jours et une vie, Le Divorce, La Vie et tout le reste, La Main au collier.

La comédienne se fait depuis plus rare sur grand écran. ...
