Jane Alexander (born October 28, 1939) is an American actress, author and former director of the National Endowment for the Arts. She is a Tony Award winner and two-time Emmy Award winner.
Alexander made her Broadway debut in 1968 in ''The Great White Hope'' and won the 1969 Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Play. Other Broadway credits include, ''6 Rms Riv Vu'' (1972), ''The Night of the Iguana'' (1988), ''The Sisters Rosensweig'' (1993) and ''Honour'' (1998).

She went on to star in the film version of ''The Great White Hope'' in 1970 and received the first of four Academy Award nominations for her performance. Her subsequent Oscar nominations were for ''All the President's Men'' (1976), ''Kramer vs Kramer'' (1979) and ''Testament'' (1983). An eight-time Emmy nominee, she received her first nomination for playing Eleanor Roosevelt in ''Eleanor and Franklin'' (1976), a role that required her to age from 18 to 60. She has won two Emmys for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or Movie for ''Playing for Time'' (1980) and ''Warm Springs'' (2005).
==Early life==
Alexander was born Jane Quigley in Boston, Massachusetts, daughter of Ruth Elizabeth (née Pearson), a nurse, and Thomas B. Quigley, an orthopedic surgeon. She graduated from Beaver Country Day School, an all-girls school in Chestnut Hill outside of Boston, where she discovered her love of acting.〔Alexander, Jane.

Encouraged by her father to go to college before embarking on an acting career, Alexander attended Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, New York, where she concentrated on theater but also studied mathematics with an eye toward computer programming, in the event that she failed as an actress. Also while at Sarah Lawrence, she shared an apartment with Hope Cooke who would become Queen Consort of Sikkim. Alexander spent her junior year studying at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, where she participated in the Edinburgh University Dramatic Society. The experience solidified her determination to continue acting.〔
