Goldie Hawn's Entertainment Career
Goldie Hawn first got famous on "Laugh-In." On the show, she often played a giggly, bikini-clad character and became a bit of a sex symbol for that time. "Laugh-In" was on for six seasons from 1968 to 1973.
After that, Hawn had a successful film career. She won an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for her serious role in the movie Cactus Flower in 1969, breaking away from her famous "Laugh-In" image. In the '70s, she had impressive roles in films like The Sugarland Express, Steven Spielberg's first feature film.
During that time, Goldie also appeared on TV, especially in two specials: Pure Goldie in 1971 and The Goldie Hawn Special in 1978, marking her comeback after taking two years off to raise her son. She had a successful film comeback with Foul Play in 1978, a comedy-thriller with Chevy Chase.
In 1980, Hawn did another TV special with Liza Minelli and had a memorable role in the film Private Benjamin, earning her a second Academy Award nomination. Her film career continued in the '80s with movies like Swing Shift and Overboard, both with her real-life husband Kurt Russell.
Goldie kept acting in films through the '90s, teaming up with Steve Martin, Mel Gibson, and Meryl Streep. In the 2000s, she slowed down in choosing projects, making films with Warren Beatty in 2001 and The Banger Sisters in 2002, which was her last feature film for about 15 years.
In 2005, Hawn published her autobiography, A Lotus Grows in the Mud. In 2017, Goldie returned to the big screen in Snatched with Amy Schumer and also appeared in The Christmas Chronicle on Netflix as Mrs. Claus.
In 2019, despite being one of the most successful "Laugh-In" cast members, Goldie didn't participate in the reunion special.
