Diane Keaton
, born Diane Hall
, (born January 5, 1946) is an American film actress, director, and producer. Keaton began her career on stage, and made her screen debut in 1970. Her first major film role was as Kay Adams-Corleone in The Godfather
(1972), but the films that shaped her early career were those with director and co-star Woody Allen beginning with Play It Again, Sam
in 1972. Her next two films with Allen, Sleeper
(1973) and Love and Death
(1975), established her as a comic actress. Her fourth, Annie Hall
(1977), won her the Academy Award for Best Actress.
Keaton subsequently expanded her range to avoid becoming typecast as her Annie Hall
persona. She became an accomplished dramatic actress, starting in Looking for Mr. Goodbar
(1977) and received Academy Award nominations for Reds
(1981) and Marvin's Room
(1996). Some of her popular later films include Father of the Bride
(1991), The First Wives Club
(1996), and Something's Gotta Give
(2003). Films Keaton has been in have earned a cumulative gross of over USD$1.1 billion in North America. [1] In addition to acting, she is also a photographer, real estate developer, and occasional singer.

Early life and education
Born
Diane Hall
in
Los Angeles, California, she is the oldest of four children. Keaton has one brother, Randy Hall (b. March 21, 1948) and sisters Robin Hall (b. March 27, 1951) and Dorrie Hall (b. April 1, 1953).
Her mother, Dorothy (
née Keaton; 1921-2008), was a
homemaker and amateur photographer, and her father, Jack Hall (1921–1990), was a
real estate broker and
civil engineer.
[2] [3] Her father came from an
Irish American Catholic background, and her mother came from a
Methodist family. Keaton was raised a Methodist by her mother. Her first ambition to become an actor came after seeing her mother win the "Mrs. Los Angeles" pageant for homemakers. Keaton claimed that the theatricality of the event inspired her to become a stage actor.
[4] She has also credited
Katharine Hepburn, whom she admires for playing strong and independent women, as one of her inspirations.
[5]
Keaton is a 1964 graduate of
Santa Ana High School in
Santa Ana, California. During her time there she participated in singing and acting clubs at school, and starred as
Blanche DuBois in a school production of
A Streetcar Named Desire
. After graduation she attended
Santa Ana College, and later
Orange Coast College as an acting student, but dropped out after a year to pursue an entertainment career in
Manhattan.
[6] Upon joining the
Actors' Equity Association she adopted the surname of Keaton, her mother's maiden name, as there was already a registered Diane Hall.
[7] For a brief time, she also moonlighted nightclubs with a singing act.
[8] She would later revisit her nightclub act in
Annie Hall
(1977) and a cameo in
Radio Days
(1987).
Keaton began studying acting at the
Neighborhood Playhouse in New York City. She initially studied acting under the
Meisner technique, an
ensemble acting technique made popular in the 1920s by
Sanford Meisner, a
New York stage actor/acting coach/director. She has described her acting technique as, "
[being
] only as good as the person you're acting with ... As opposed to going it on my own and forging my path to create a wonderful performance without the help of anyone. I always need the help of everyone!"
According to her
Reds
co-star
Warren Beatty, "She approaches a script sort of like a play in that she has the entire script memorized before you start doing the movie, which I don't know any other actors doing that."
[9]
In 1968, Keaton became a member of the "Tribe" and understudy to Sheila in the original
Broadway production of
Hair
.
[10] She gained some notoriety for her refusal to disrobe in the portions of the musical when the entire cast performed nude, even though nudity in the production was optional for actors. (Those who performed nude received a $50 bonus.
[11]) After acting in
Hair
for nine months, she auditioned for a part in
Woody Allen's production of
Play It Again, Sam
. After nearly being passed over for being too tall (at 5 ft 8 in./1.73 m she is two inches/5 cm taller than Allen), she won the part.
Career
1970s
After being nominated for a
Tony Award for
Play It Again, Sam
, Keaton made her film debut in 1970's
Lovers and Other Strangers
. She followed with guest roles on the television series
Love, American Style
and
Night Gallery
. Between films, Keaton appeared in a series of
deodorant commercials.
Keaton's breakthrough role came two years later when she was cast as
Kay Adams, the girlfriend of
Michael Corleone (played by
Al Pacino) in
Francis Ford Coppola's 1972 blockbuster
The Godfather
. Coppola noted that he first noticed Keaton in
Lovers and Other Strangers
, and cast her because of her reputation for
eccentricity that he wanted her to bring to the role.
[12] (Keaton claims that at the time she was commonly referred to as "the kooky actress" of the film industry.
) Her performance in the film was loosely based on her real life experience of making the film, both of which she has described as being "the woman in a world of men".
The Godfather
was an unparalleled critical and financial success, becoming the highest grossing film of the year and winning the
Best Picture Oscar of 1972.
Two years later she reprised her role as Kay Adams in
The Godfather, Part II
. She was initially reluctant, stating that, "At first, I was skeptical about playing Kay again in the
Godfather
sequel. But when I read the script, the character seemed much more substantial than in the first movie."
In
Part II
her character changed dramatically, becoming more embittered about her husband's activities. Even though Keaton received widespread exposure from the films, her character's importance was minimal.
Time
wrote that she was "invisible in
The Godfather
and pallid in
The Godfather, Part II
."
[13]
Keaton's other notable films of the 1970s included many collaborations with
Woody Allen. Although by the time they made films together their romantic involvement had ended, she played many eccentric characters in several of his comic and dramatic films including
Sleeper
,
Love and Death
,
Interiors
,
Manhattan
, and the film version of
Play It Again, Sam
, directed by
Herbert Ross. Allen has gone on to credit Keaton as his muse during his early film career.
[14]
In 1977, Keaton starred with Allen in the
romantic comedy Annie Hall
, one of her most famous roles.
Annie Hall
was written and directed by Allen and the film was believed to be autobiographical of his relationship with Keaton. Allen based the character of Annie Hall loosely on Keaton ("Annie" is a nickname of hers, and "Hall" is her original surname). Many of Keaton's mannerisms and her self-deprecating sense of humor were added into the role by Allen. (Director
Nancy Meyers has claimed "Diane's the most self-deprecating person alive".
[15]) Keaton has also said that Allen wrote the character as an "idealized version" of herself.
[16] The two starred as a frequently on-again, off-again couple living in New York City. Her acting was later summed up by
CNN as "awkward, self-deprecating, speaking in endearing little whirlwinds of semi-logic",
[17] and by Allen as a "nervous breakdown in slow motion."
[18] The film was both a major financial and critical success, and won the
Academy Award for
Best Picture. Keaton's performance also won the
Academy Award for Best Actress. In 2006,
Premiere
magazine ranked Keaton in
Annie Hall
as 60th on their list of the "100 Greatest Performances of All Time":
It's hard to play ditzy. ... The genius of Annie is that despite her loopy backhand, awful driving, and nervous tics, she's also a complicated, intelligent woman. Keaton brilliantly displays this dichotomy of her character, especially when she yammers away on a first date with Alvy (Woody Allen) while the subtitle reads, 'He probably thinks I'm a yoyo.' Yo-yo ? Hardly. [19]
Keaton's eccentric wardrobe in
Annie Hall
, which consisted mainly of vintage men's clothing, including
neckties,
vests, baggy pants, and
fedora hats, made her an unlikely fashion icon of the late 1970s. Most of the clothing seen in the film came from Keaton herself, who was already known for her
tomboyish clothing style years before
Annie Hall
, though Ruth Morley and
Ralph Lauren reportedly worked on the movie's costume.
[20] Soon after the film's release, men's clothing and pantsuits became popular attire for women. since August 2009}}" style="white-space: nowrap;">[
dead link]
[21] She is known to favor men's vintage clothing, and usually appears in public wearing gloves and conservative attire. (A 2005 profile in the
San Francisco Chronicle
described her as "easy to find. Look for the only woman in sight dressed in a turtleneck. On a 90-degree afternoon in Pasadena."
[22]) Keaton would later reprise her
Annie Hall
appearance when she attended the 2003
Academy Awards presentation in a men's
tuxedo and a
bowler hat. Keaton also became a frequent target of fashion critic
Mr. Blackwell, having made his annual "Worst Dressed List" on five occasions.
Her photo by
Douglas Kirkland appeared on the cover of the September 26, 1977, issue
Time
magazine with the story dubbing her "the funniest woman now working in films."
Later that year, she departed from her usual lighthearted comic roles when she won the highly coveted lead role in the drama
Looking for Mr. Goodbar
, based on the
novel by
Judith Rossner. In the film she played a Catholic schoolteacher for deaf children who lives a double life, spending nights frequenting singles bars and engaging in promiscuous sex. Keaton became interested in the role after seeing it as a "psychological case history."
[23] The same issue of
Time
commended her role choice and criticized the restricted roles available for female actors in American films:
A male actor can fly a plane, fight a war, shoot a badman, pull off a sting, impersonate a big cheese in business or politics. Men are presumed to be interesting. A female can play a wife, play a whore, get pregnant, lose her baby, and, um, let's see ... Women are presumed to be dull. ... Now a determined trend spotter can point to a handful of new films whose makers think that women can bear the dramatic weight of a production alone, or virtually so. Then there is Diane Keaton in Looking for Mr. Goodbar
. As Theresa Dunn, Keaton dominates this raunchy, risky, violent dramatization of Judith Rossner's 1975 novel about a schoolteacher who cruises singles bars.
In addition to acting, Keaton has stated that "
[I] had a lifelong ambition to be a singer."
[24] She had a brief, unrealized career as a recording artist in the 1970s. Her first record was an original cast recording of
Hair
, in 1971. In 1977 she began recording tracks for a solo album, but the finished record never materialized.
Keaton met with more success in the medium of still photography. Like her character in
Annie Hall
, Keaton had long relished photography as a favorite hobby, an interest she picked up as a teenager from her mother. While traveling in the late 1970s she began exploring her avocation more seriously. "Rolling Stone had asked me to take photographs for them, and I thought, 'Wait a minute, what I'm really interested in is these lobbies, and these strange ballrooms in these old hotels.' So I began shooting them", she recalled in 2003. "These places were deserted, and I could just sneak in anytime and nobody cared. It was so easy and I could do it myself. It was an adventure for me."
Reservations
, her collection of photos of hotel interiors, was published in book form in 1980.
[25]
1980s
After
Manhattan
in 1979, Keaton and Woody Allen ended their long working relationship, and the film would be their last major collaboration until 1993. In 1978 Keaton became romantically involved with
Warren Beatty, and two years later he cast her to play opposite of him in
Reds
. In the film she played
Louise Bryant, a journalist and feminist, who flees from her husband to work with radical journalist
John Reed (Beatty), and later enters Russia to locate him as he chronicles the
Russian Civil War.
The New York Times
wrote that Keaton was, "nothing less than splendid as Louise Bryant - beautiful, selfish, funny and driven. It's the best work she has done to date."
[26] Keaton received her second Academy Award nomination for the film.
Beatty cast Keaton after seeing her in
Annie Hall
, as he wanted to bring her natural nervousness and insecure attitude to the role. The production of
Reds
was delayed several times since its conception in 1977, and Keaton almost left the project when she believed it would never be produced. Filming finally began two years later. In a 2006
Vanity Fair
story, Keaton described her role as "the everyman of that piece, as someone who wanted to be extraordinary but was probably more ordinary ... I knew what it felt like to be extremely insecure."
Assistant director Simon Relph later stated that Louise Bryant was one of her most difficult roles, and that "
[she] almost got broken."
[27]
1984 brought
The Little Drummer Girl
, Keaton's first excursion into the thriller and action genre.
The Little Drummer Girl
was both a financial and critical failure, with critics claiming that Keaton was miscast for the genre, such as one review from
The New Republic
claiming that "the title role, the pivotal role, is played by Diane Keaton, and around her the picture collapses in tatters. She is so feeble, so inappropriate."
[28] However, that same year she received positive reviews for her performance in
Mrs. Soffel
, a film based on the true story of a repressed prison warden's wife who falls in love with a convicted murderer and arranges for his escape. Two years later she starred with
Jessica Lange and
Sissy Spacek in
Crimes of the Heart
, adapted from
Beth Henley's Pulitzer Prize-winning play into a moderately successful screen comedy. She starred in her first commercial vehicle with 1987's
Baby Boom
, her first of four collaborations with writer-producer
Nancy Meyers. In
Baby Boom
Keaton starred as a Manhattan career woman who is suddenly forced to care for a toddler. That same year she made a cameo in Allen's film
Radio Days
as a nightclub singer. 1988's
The Good Mother
was a misstep for Keaton. The film was a financial disappointment (according to Keaton, the film was "a Big Failure. Like, BIG failure"
[29]), and some critics panned her performance, such was one review from
The Washington Post
: "her acting degenerates into hype – as if she's trying to sell an idea she can't fully believe in."
[30]
In 1987, Keaton directed and edited her first feature film, a documentary named
Heaven
about the possibility of an
afterlife.
Heaven
met with mixed critical reaction, with
The New York Times
likening it to "a conceit imposed on its subjects."
[31] Over the next four years, Keaton went on to direct music videos for artists such as
Belinda Carlisle, two television films starring
Patricia Arquette, and episodes of the series
China Beach
and
Twin Peaks
.
1990s
By the 1990s, Keaton had established herself as one of the most popular and versatile actors in Hollywood. Now middle-aged, she shifted to more mature roles, frequently playing matriarchs of middle-class families. Of her role choices and avoidance of becoming
typecast, she said: "Most often a particular role does you some good and Bang! You have loads of offers, all of them for similar roles ... I have tried to break away from the usual roles and have tried my hand at several things."
[32]
She began the decade with
The Lemon Sisters
, a poorly received comedy/drama that she starred in and produced, which was
shelved for a year after its completion. In 1991, Keaton starred with
Steve Martin in the family
comedy Father of the Bride
. She was almost not cast in the film, as the commercial failure of
The Good Mother
had strained her relationship with
Walt Disney Pictures, the studio of both films.
Father of the Bride
was Keaton's first major hit after four years of commercial disappointments.
Keaton reprised her role four years later in the sequel, as a woman who becomes pregnant in middle age at the same time as her daughter. A review of the film for the
San Francisco Examiner
was one of many in which Keaton once again received comparison to
Katharine Hepburn: "No longer relying on that stuttering uncertainty that seeped into all her characterizations of the 1970s, she has somehow become Katharine Hepburn with a deep maternal instinct, that is, she is a fine and intelligent actress who doesn't need to be tough and edgy in order to prove her feminism."
[33]
Keaton reprised her role of Kay Adams in 1990's
The Godfather, Part III
. Set 20 years after the end of
The Godfather, Part II
, Keaton's part had evolved into the estranged ex-wife of Michael Corleone. Criticism of the film and Keaton again centered on her character's unimportance in the film.
The Washington Post
wrote: "Even though she is authoritative in the role, Keaton suffers tremendously from having no real function except to nag Michael for his past sins."
[34] In 1993 Keaton starred in
Manhattan Murder Mystery
, her first film with Woody Allen since 1979. Her part was originally intended for
Mia Farrow, but Farrow dropped out of the project after her split with Allen.
In 1995, Keaton directed
Unstrung Heroes
, her first theatrically released narrative film. The movie, adapted from Franz Lidz's memoir, starred Nathan Watt as a boy in 1960s whose mother (
Andie MacDowell) becomes ill with cancer. As her sickness advances and his inventor father (
John Turturro) grows increasingly distant, the boy is sent to live with his two eccentric uncles (
Maury Chaykin and
Michael Richards). In a geographic switch, Keaton shifted the story's setting from the New York of Lidz's book to the Southern California of her own childhood. Though it played in a relatively limited release and made little impression at the box office, the film and its direction were well-received critically.
[35]
Keaton's most successful film of the decade was the 1996 comedy
The First Wives Club
. She starred with
Goldie Hawn and
Bette Midler as a trio of "first wives": middle-aged women who had been divorced by their husbands in favor of younger women. Keaton claimed that making the film "saved
[her] life."
[36] The film was a major success grossing US$105 million at the North American box office,
[37] and it developed a
cult following among middle-aged women.
[38] Reviews of the film were generally positive for Keaton and her co-stars, and she was even referred to by
The San Francisco Chronicle
as "probably
[one of the] the best comic film actresses alive."
[39]
Also in 1996, Keaton starred as Bessie, a woman with
leukemia in
Marvin's Room
, an adaptation of the play by Scott McPherson.
Meryl Streep played her estranged sister Lee, although had initially been considered for the role of Bessie. The film also starred a young
Leonardo Di Caprio as Streep's rebellious son.
Roger Ebert stated that "Streep and Keaton, in their different styles, find ways to make Lee and Bessie into much more than the expression of their problems."
[40] Keaton earned a third Academy Award nomination for the film. Although critically acclaimed, the film was not released on a wide scale, possibly costing Keaton the Oscar. Keaton said that the biggest challenge of the role was understanding the mentality of a person with terminal illness.
2000s
Keaton's first film of 2000 was
Hanging Up
with
Meg Ryan and
Lisa Kudrow. Keaton also directed the film, despite claiming in a 1996 interview that she would never direct herself in a film, saying "
[as a director] you automatically have different goals. I can't think about directing when I'm acting."
The film was a drama about three sisters coping with the senility and eventual death of their elderly father.
Hanging Up
rated poorly with critics, and grossed a modest US$36 million at the North American box office.
[41]
In 2001 Keaton co-starred with
Warren Beatty once again in
Town & Country
, a critical and financial fiasco. Budgeted at an estimated US$90 million, the film opened to little notice and grossed only $7 million in its North American theatrical run.
[42] Peter Travers of
Rolling Stone
claimed that
Town & Country
was, "less deserving of a review than it is an obituary ... The corpse took with it the reputations of its starry cast, including Warren Beatty
[and] Diane Keaton".
[43]
In 2001 and 2002 Keaton starred in four low-budget television films. She played a fanatical nun in the religious drama
Sister Mary Explains It All
, an impoverished mother in the drama
On Thin Ice
, and a bookkeeper in the
mob comedy Plan B
. In
Crossed Over
she played Beverly Lowry, a woman who forms an unusual friendship with the only woman executed while on death row in
Texas,
Karla Faye Tucker.
Keaton's first major hit since 1996 came in 2003's
Something's Gotta Give
, directed by
Nancy Meyers and co-starring
Jack Nicholson. Nicholson and Keaton, aged 63 and 57 respectively, were seen as bold casting choices for leads in a romantic comedy. Twentieth Century Fox, the film's original studio, reportedly declined to produce the film, fearing that the lead characters were too old to be bankable. Keaton commented about the situation in
Ladies' Home Journal
: "Let's face it, people my age and Jack's age are much deeper, much more soulful, because they've seen a lot of life. They have a great deal of passion and hope- why shouldn't they fall in love? Why shouldn't movies show that?"
[44] Keaton played a middle-aged playwright who falls in love with her daughter's much older boyfriend. The film was a major success at the box office, grossing US$125 million in North America.
[45] Roger Ebert wrote that "
[Nicholson and Keaton
] bring so much experience, knowledge and humor to their characters that the film works in ways the screenplay might not have even hoped for."
[46] The following year, Keaton received her fourth
Academy Award nomination for her role in the film.
Most recently, Keaton starred in the moderately successful 2005 comedy
The Family Stone
with
Sarah Jessica Parker. Her film,
Because I Said So
with
Mandy Moore, opened on February 2, 2007 to poor reviews. She has co-starred with
Stephen Collins in both
The First Wives Club
(1996) and
Because I Said So
.
Keaton has served as a producer on films and television series. She produced the
FOX series
Pasadena
, which was cancelled after airing only four episodes in 2001 but later completed its run on
cable in 2005. In 2003 she produced the
Gus Van Sant drama
Elephant
, about a
school shooting. On why she produced the film, she said "It really makes me think about my responsibilities as an adult to try and understand what's going on with young people."
[47]
Outside of the film industry, Keaton has continued to pursue her interest in photography. As a collector, she told
Vanity Fair
in 1987: "I have amassed a huge library of images - kissing scenes from movies, pictures I like. Visual things are really key for me."
[48] She has published several more collections of her own photographs, and has also served as an editor for collections of vintage photography. Works she has edited in the last decade include a book of photographs by
paparazzo Ron Galella, an anthology of reproductions of
clown paintings, and a collection of photos of California's Spanish Colonial-style houses.
Keaton has also established herself as a
real estate developer. She has resold several mansions in Southern California after renovating and redesigning them. One of her clients is
Madonna, who purchased a US$6.5 million Beverly Hills mansion from Keaton in 2003.
[49] She received the
Film Society of Lincoln Center's Gala Tribute in 2007.
Personal life
Relationships and family
Keaton's most famous romance was with director
Woody Allen. Keaton and Allen first met during Keaton's audition for the Broadway production of
Play It Again, Sam
, but they did not know each other personally until having dinner after a late night rehearsal. Allen claims that Keaton's sense of humor attracted him to her.
[50] They briefly lived together during the Broadway run of
Play It Again, Sam
, but their relationship became less formal by the time the film version was produced in 1972.
[51] They went on to produce eight films together between 1971 and 1993. After Keaton's working relationship with Woody Allen diminished in 1979, she began dating her
Reds
co-star
Warren Beatty.
[52] Keaton's involvement with Beatty also made her a regular subject of
tabloid magazines and media at the time, a role to which she was unaccustomed. (As a result of her avoidance of the spotlight,
Vanity Fair
described her in 1985 as "the most reclusive star since
Garbo".
) Beatty and Keaton separated shortly after completing
Reds
. Their separation was believed to have been caused by the strain of making the film, a troubled production with numerous financial and scheduling problems.
Keaton still maintains contact with both Allen and Beatty, and describes Allen as one of her closest friends.
Keaton also had a relationship with
Al Pacino, her co-star in
The Godfather Trilogy
. The on-again, off-again relationship ended following the filming of
The Godfather Part III
. Referring to the relationship, Keaton has said "Al was simply the most entertaining man... To me, that's, that is the most beautiful face. I think Warren was gorgeous, very pretty, but Al's face is like whoa. Killer, killer face."
[53]
In July 2001, Keaton publicly announced that she had given up pursuing romance, and stated, "I don't think that because I'm not married it's made my life any less. That old maid myth is garbage."
[54] Keaton has two
adopted children, a daughter, Dexter (adopted 1996), and a son, Duke (adopted 2001). Keaton decided to become a mother at the age of 50 after the death of her father, when she began to realize her own mortality.
She later said of having children, "Motherhood has completely changed me. It's just about the most completely humbling experience that I've ever had."
[55]
Religious affiliation
Keaton stated that she produced her 1987 documentary
Heaven
because, "I was always pretty religious as a kid ... I was primarily interested in religion because I wanted to go to heaven" but also stated that she considered herself an
agnostic.
Raised a Methodist, Keaton stated in an October 2002 television interview with
Oxygen that although she currently believes in God, she considered herself an
atheist for a period of her life. Woody Allen once said of her, "(She) believes in God, but she also believes that the radio works because there are tiny people inside it".
[56]
Other activities
Keaton is an advocate against
plastic surgery. She told
More
magazine in 2004, "I'm stuck in this idea that I need to be authentic ... My face needs to look the way I feel."
Keaton is also active in campaigns with the Los Angeles Conservancy to save and restore historic buildings, particularly in the Los Angeles area.
Among the buildings she has been active in restoring include the
Ennis House in the Hollywood Hills designed by
Frank Lloyd Wright.
Keaton had also been active in the failed campaign to save
the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles (a hotel featured in
Reservations
), the location of
Robert Kennedy's assassination in 1968.
Since May 2005, she has been a contributing blogger at
The Huffington Post
. Since summer 2006, Keaton has been the new face of
L'Oréal.
