Early life

Career

Her first television role was on the TV series The Greatest American Hero, in which she appeared as Rhonda Blake, one of the students of main character Ralph Hinkley (William Katt). Her best-known role came in 1983 as Juliet Parrish in the science fiction mini-series V, the 1984 sequel V: The Final Battle, and V: The Series from 1984 to 1985. Her film credits include The January Man (1989), Internal Affairs (1990), Drive Me Crazy (1999), and Omen IV: The Awakening (1991).

Grant starred on Broadway as vocally challenged Lina Lamont in the 1985 stage adaptation of Singin' in the Rain, which won her the Theatre World Award and a Drama Desk Award nomination as Outstanding Featured Actress in a Musical.

In director Jerry Zaks' 1986 Lincoln Center-to-Broadway revival of John Guare's The House of Blue Leaves, Grant played the deaf Corinna Stroller, following Julie Hagerty and Patricia Clarkson in the role.

Grant has made guest appearances in TV shows like The Incredible Hulk, the Voyagers! pilot episode as Mary Murphy, Hardcastle and McCormick, Time of Your Life, and Tales From the Crypt.

She has also appeared on shows starring Stephen Collins: the TV series version of Tales of the Gold Monkey, and 7th Heaven. She guest-starred as Abigail "Abby" Morris in the 7th Heaven episode "What Will People Say?" which first aired on November 11, 1996.

She appeared on the show State of Grace from 2001 to 2002 as Tattie McKee.

Personal life

Grant married actor Stephen Collins in April 1985 in New York City. They have a daughter, Kate (born in 1989). Grant met Collins during production of Tales of the Gold Monkey in the early 1980s.

Collins filed for divorce from Grant in 2012 after 27 years of marriage. Their divorce was finalized in January 2015.

In October 2014, it was revealed that a tape recording was made in 2012 by Grant in which her then-husband allegedly confessed to past sexual abuse against minors. Grant turned the tape over to NYPD and LAPD in 2012, but the statutes of limitation in each state protected Collins. In a December 2014 interview with People magazine, Collins admitted he had "inappropriate sexual conduct with three female minors" in 1973, 1982, and 1994.
