Sara Gilbert Biography

Sara Gilbert is an actress, producer, and television creator whose career spans more than four decades in the entertainment industry. Gilbert is best known for her portrayal of Darlene Conner on the ABC sitcom "Roseanne," a role she began as a teenager and continued through the show's original nine-season run, its revival, and the spinoff "The Conners." Her performance as Darlene earned her two Primetime Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series, three Young Artist Awards, and a Television Critics Association Award for Individual Achievement in Comedy.

In addition to her work on "Roseanne," Gilbert has appeared in films including "Poison Ivy," "Riding in Cars with Boys," and "High Fidelity." She provided the voice of Laura Powers on "The Simpsons" and played physicist Leslie Winkle on CBS's comedy "The Big Bang Theory." Her stage credits include the off-Broadway production "Exonerated" and a starring role in the Williamstown Theater Festival production of "The Hot L Baltimore."

Gilbert holds a degree in art from Yale University with a focus on photography. She made her directorial debut with the short film "Persona Non Grata," which was selected for the Sundance Film Festival. Her photography has been exhibited at the Paul Morris Gallery in New York City and at the Deutsche Guggenheim Museum in Berlin. Gilbert has also contributed as a writer on "Roseanne" and produced various projects throughout her career.

As a television creator, Gilbert developed and launched CBS's daytime talk show "The Talk," serving as executive producer and co-host. The show received Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Talk Show/Entertainment and Outstanding Entertainment Talk Show Hosts, and Gilbert was recognized with a GLAAD Media Award for an episode addressing LGBTQ youth issues. She also served as executive producer on the sitcom "The Pradeeps of Pittsburgh."

Gilbert's enduring association with the Conner family universe includes her role in reuniting the "Roseanne" cast for its reboot and her continued work as star and executive producer of "The Conners." She has spoken about the show's significance in representing working-class American families, a theme that has been central to her career and continues to resonate with audiences.
