Harden debuted on Broadway in Tony Kushner's Angels in America in 1993. For her film work, she won a Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for Pollock (2000), and was nominated in the same category for Mystic River (2003). She is currently shooting a film called "Home", in which she will be playing the role of a mother (to her real daughter, Eulala Scheel) as she did in Felicity: An American Girl Adventure (2005).

Other notable films include The Imagemaker (1986), her first screen role, in which she played a stage manager; the Coen Brothers' Miller's Crossing (1990), a 1930s mobster drama in which she gained her first wide exposure; the Disney sci-fi comedy Flubber (1997), a popular hit in which she co-starred with Robin Williams; the supernatural drama Meet Joe Black (1998); Labor of Love (1998), a Lifetime Television movie in which she starred with David Marshall Grant; and an all-star adventure-drama of aging astronauts, Space Cowboys (2000). She also guest-starred as a FBI undercover agent posing as a white-supremacist in "Raw," an episode of the popular crime drama Law & Order: Special Victims Unit for which she has been nominated Best Guest Actress in a Drama Series." She recently returned in the series' eighth season premiere continuing her FBI plotline albeit in another case involving domestic ecoterrorism with its roots in a rape discovered by the SVU.

Private life

Her nephew and niece, Sander and Audrey Harden, died in Astoria, New York of severe burns from a house fire, along with her former-sister-in-law, Rebecca.
