Early life[edit] Griffith was born in Manhattan, to actress Tippi Hedren
Tippi Hedren and Peter Griffith, a former child stage actor and advertising executive.[4][5] She is of Swedish, Norwegian, German, and English descent.[citation needed] Griffith's parents divorced when she was 4 years old,[3] after which her father married model-actress Nanita Greene and had two more children: Tracy Griffith, who also became an actress, and Clay A. Griffith, a set designer. Her mother married agent and producer Noel Marshall.[3] During her childhood and adolescent years, she lived part of the time in New York with her father and part-time in Antelope Valley, California, where her mother formed the animal preserve Shambala. Griffith appeared in advertisements and briefly worked as a child model before abandoning the career, citing extreme shyness as the reason.[3] While attending the Hollywood Professional School, Griffith was advanced in her studies, which allowed her to skip a grade level and graduate at age 16.[4][6] Career[edit]

A teenage Griffith in The Garden (1977)

Griffith began acting at nine months of age in a commercial[7] and later appeared as an extra in Smith!
Smith! (1969) and The Harrad Experiment (1973). Her first major role was in Arthur Penn's Night Moves (1975), in which she did several racy nude scenes at the age of 17. This drew attention to her and typecast her as a nymphet in films such as Smile, The Drowning Pool (both also 1975), and One on One (1977). She was cast as "Melanie", the daughter of her real life mother, Tippi Hedren, in the film Roar (1981), directed by then-stepfather Noel Marshall. During the filming she was attacked by a lion and had 50 stitches to her face; it was feared she would lose an eye but in the end the wound was not disfiguring.[8] She then appeared in the made-for-television movie She's in the Army Now (1981) with Jamie Lee Curtis
Jamie Lee Curtis and Steven Bauer, whom she married shortly after the film premiered. Griffith's well-known drug and alcohol addictions stalled her career,[9] but she made a comeback at age 26 with her role as a porn actress in the Brian De Palma
Brian De Palma thriller Body Double (1984). The film, although a commercial failure, earned her the National Society of Film Critics Award for Best Supporting Actress. It led to her first starring role in Jonathan Demme's Something Wild (1986), which became a cult favorite.[10] Griffith also starred in the science fiction film Cherry 2000, which went straight to video in 1988 but has also become a cult favorite. She achieved mainstream success when Mike Nichols cast her as spunky secretary Tess McGill in the box office hit Working Girl (1988), co-starring Harrison Ford, Sigourney Weaver, Alec Baldwin and Joan Cusack. Griffith's performance was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress and won her the Golden Globe
Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy.

Untrained in song and dance, she still impressed New York Times theater critic Ben Brantley, who wrote: "Ms. Griffith is a sensational Roxie, possibly the most convincing I have seen" and "[the] vultures who were expecting to see Ms. Griffith stumble...will have to look elsewhere".[14] Griffith's celebratory reviews made it a box office success.[15][16][17] She returned to the stage in 2012 in a play written by Scott Caan, titled No Way Around but Through, in which she played his mother.[18] She played Caan's mother again during 2014–16 in a recurring role on his television show Hawaii Five-0.

They had a son, Alexander Griffith Bauer, born on August 22, 1985. The couple divorced in 1989 after a long separation.[33] Griffith later admitted to having problems with cocaine and liquor after her split from Bauer.

They remarried on June 26, 1989. Their daughter, Dakota Johnson, was born on October 4, 1989. They separated in March 1994,[28] reconciled later that year, but separated again[35] in May 1995.
