Field's early acting days were dominated by her role in the popular TV series "Gidget" (1965–1966) and "The Flying Nun" (1967–1970), where her charm and innate talent garnered attention. However, she aimed higher, seeking roles that showcased her versatility and depth as an actress. This pursuit led her to the big screen and, notably, her performance in "Sybil" (1976), a breakthrough role that showcased her dramatic prowess.

But it was her portrayal of Norma Rae Webster in the film "Norma Rae" (1979) that earned her widespread recognition and acclaim. Her depiction of a factory worker turned labor union organizer not only earned her an Academy Award but also cemented her reputation as a powerhouse performer unafraid of tackling complex, socially relevant roles.

Field's career navigated through diverse genres, showcasing her range as an actress. From the intense drama of "Places in the Heart" (1984), for which she won her second Academy Award, to the endearing comedy in "Mrs. Doubtfire" (1993), she effortlessly transitioned between various roles, leaving a mark on each character she portrayed.

Her dedication to her craft and ability to connect with audiences on an emotional level made her performances memorable. Field's return to television in the acclaimed series "Brothers & Sisters" (2006–2011) further solidified her status as a versatile actress, capable of captivating audiences in both film and television formats.

Beyond her acting talent, Field has been an advocate for various causes, using her platform to raise awareness about women's rights and LGBTQ+ issues. Her authenticity and passion for social change mirrored her on-screen dedication, earning her respect both within and outside the entertainment industry.

But one aspect of her life that also got a lot of attention was her long-time relationship with actor Burt Reynolds.

An amazing person no doubt, but this goes to show that you need to tell someone you love how you really feel. Even if it backfires later. Life is too short, even at an older age.

[Jan]

She is an amazing, amazing actress. I loved her and Mrs. Doubtfire, and Forrest Gump as the Momma who would do anything for her son to get ahead.❤❤❤

[jed]

You left out a lot of drama she had in her life when she was young and physical assaults from family members

[caroltanzi]

Sally Fields is a very good actress. I liked her in almost everything she has done. I think she has her feet on the ground and knows the right thing to do. Carol from California

I love Sally Field she was my fantasy mom ❤

[MrTrekbear]

Didn't Burt also sleep around, which is what I thought caused it to end. Heresey you say? Most (all) of those who've commented +/- know neither one, so is this the national inquirer version of their relationship? Sheesh! I admired him and her, always thought they were underrated by most and had great onscreen chemistry! I hope they had fun :)

[richardgerome]

Definitely “Norma Rae” her best performance and the best movie… ❤️

[jcjcviews]

Sally Field is remarkable because she has remained attractive as a woman from the beginning and forever.

[shellymorris]

Y does it take long to show and talk about a 2 minute video

[Tim-un]

It sure wasn't the flying nun that was awful but Smoky and the bandit was great back then all the stars did a great job and loved Jackie and Reed

[debbers]

After she just lied about something else, I wouldn't believe anything she said!
